Gardenia pyriformis, also known as malara, native gardenia or turpentine tree, is a plant species in the coffee family. It is native to northern Australia, specifically the Kimberley region of Western Australia, the Top End of the Northern Territory, and northern Queensland. This shrub or small tree can grow up to 6 meters tall and produces small white flowers and hard, ribbed fruits throughout the year. It is typically found in red sand soils, pindan sand plains, dunes, stony ridges, and scree slopes. There are three recognized subspecies of Gardenia pyriformis: G. p. pyriformis, G. p. keartlandii, and G. p. orientalis.
