Sprengelia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia.

Plants in the genus Sprengelia are slender, erect or low-lying shrubs with overlapping, stem-clasping leaves, many bracts at the base of the flowers, the sepals egg-shaped, white or coloured, the five petals with spreading lobes, and the fruit a capsule.

[2][3][4] The genus Sprengelia was first formally described in 1794 by James Edward Smith in the journal Kongliga Vetenskaps Academiens Nya Handlingar,[5][6] later published in translation in Tracts relating to natural history.

[5][6] The genus name honours the German botanist Christian Konrad Sprengel.
