Gastrolobium spinosum, commonly known as prickly poison, is a shrub native to Southwest Australia. It grows from 0.3 to 3.5 metres in height and has spiky, dentate leaves with a long, tapering, pointed apex. The pea flowers are yellow to orange with a band of red surrounding the yellow centre, and a pink and maroon keel, blooming from early spring to early summer (September to December in Australia). The species was first formally described by English botanist George Bentham in 1839.
