Veronica elliptica, synonym Hebe elliptica, is a plant of the family Plantaginaceae.

[1] It is an evergreen, bushy shrub of 1 m or more in height, with green, oval leaves, 2–4 cm long.

Flowers are white to pale mauve.

[citation needed] Branches from plants of Veronica elliptica on Disappointment Island, Auckland Islands, New Zealand were used by the survivors of the shipwreck of the Dundonald to build a coracle and oars which they eventually used to successfully reach Auckland Island.
