Leptospermum juniperinum, also known as prickly tea tree, is a shrub native to eastern Australia. It has thin, pointed leaves and white flowers that grow singly on short side shoots. The plant can reach a height of 2-3 meters and is usually found in swamps, heath, and cliffs in the coastal regions of Queensland and New South Wales. Its fruit is a small capsule that remains on the plant when mature. The species was first described in 1797 and its name refers to its resemblance to juniper plants.
