Verticordia capillaris is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

It is a shrub with a single stem at the base, small leaves and creamy white or occasionally pink flowers in dense corymb-like groups.

The floral cup is shaped like half a sphere, constricted above the middle, about 1.0 mm (0.04 in) long and hairy.

[4][5] Verticordia capillaris is classified as "Priority Four" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife,[4] meaning that is rare or near threatened.

[6] This species is very rare in cultivation although one plant which was originally transplanted from land that was later cleared for agriculture has survived for more than 15 years.
