Eremophila verrucosa

Eremophila verrucosa is a flowering plant in the figwort family, Scrophulariaceae and is endemic to South Australia.

It is an erect, broom-shaped shrub with its leaves and branches covered with yellow-grey scales and lilac to purple flowers.

Its branches, leaves, flower stems and part of its sepals are covered with a layer of yellow-grey or grey scales.

[2][3] The species was first formally described in 1979 by Robert Chinnock and the description was published in Journal of the Adelaide Botanic Garden.

[2] Eremophila verrucosa is not well known in horticulture but its grey foliage contrasts with its well displayed lilac-coloured to purple flowers.
