Leptospermum liversidgei, commonly known as the olive tea-tree,[2] is a species of compact shrub that is endemic to eastern Australia.

It has narrow egg-shaped, lemon-scented leaves, white or pink flowers and woody fruit that remain on the plant at maturity.

Leptospermum liversidgei is a shrub that typically grows to a height of 4 m (13 ft) and has thin, rough bark on the main branches and hairy young stems.

[2][3] Leptospermum liversidgei was first formally described in 1905 by Richard Thomas Baker and Henry George Smith in the Journal and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New South Wales.

[6] Olive tea-tree occurs in coastal swamps between the Bundaberg region of Queensland and Tomago in New South Wales where it grows in heath.
