leucoptera, commonly known as silver needlewood, needlewood, needle bush, needle hakea[2] or kulua,[3] is a shrub or small tree with cylinder-shaped leaves and with flowers which have a covering of white, woolly hairs on the flower stalks.

It is found in western New South Wales, north-western Victoria, South Australia and the Northern Territory.

It grows in grassland, shrubland and woodland.
