Swainsona burkittii, commonly known as woolly Darling pea,[2] is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to inland Australia.

It is an erect or low-lying perennial with imparipinnate leaves usually with 15 to 30 egg-shaped to more or less circular leaflets, and racemes of up to fifty dark reddish-purple flowers.

Swainsona burkittii is an erect or low-lying perennial subshrub that typically grows to a height of 1 m (3 ft 3 in) with its stems densely covered with soft hairs.

[2][3][4] Swainsona burkittii was first formally described in 1864 by George Bentham in Flora Australiensis from an unpublished description of Ferdinand von Mueller.

[5][6] The specific epithet (burkittii) honours J. Burkitt, who collected for von Mueller.
