Pterostylis sargentii, also known as the frog greenhood, is a plant in the orchid family that is native to the south-west region of Western Australia. It is a relatively common orchid with small white flowers that have green or brown stripes and a frog-like labellum. Non-flowering plants have a rosette of leaves, while flowering plants have stem leaves. The flowers are borne on a tall stem and bloom from July to October. This plant was first described in 1905 and is named after the Western Australian pharmacist who collected the type specimen. It can be found in a variety of habitats in the south-west region of Western Australia and is not considered threatened by the local government.
