Verticordia humilis, commonly known as small featherflower, is a flowering plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

[2][3] Verticordia humilis was first formally described by George Bentham in 1867 and the description was published in Flora Australiensis Volume 3 from specimens collected by John Septimus Roe.

[1][4] The specific epithet (humilis) is a Latin word meaning "lowly" or "small"[5] referring to the stature of the plant.

[2][3][7][8] It has been suggested that the arrangement of the petals and sepals of the pendulous flowers make it difficult for insects like ants to reach the nectar produced by them and that it is likely that they are pollinated by birds or small mammals.

[3] Verticordia humilis is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.
