Pityrodia scabra

Pityrodia scabra is a species of flowering plant in the mint family Lamiaceae and is endemic to inland Western Australia.

Pityrodia scabra is a shrub that typically grows to a height of about 1 m (3 ft 3 in), its foliage covered with sticky, branched, golden hairs.

The flowers are arranged in leaf axils in groups of about 7 to 9, with linear bracteoles 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long at the base.

[2][3] Pityrodia scabra was first formally described in 1967 by Alex George from a specimen collected near Cowcowing, and the description was published in the Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia.

[8] Pityrodia scabra is classified as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.
