Persoonia falcata is a shrub native to northern Australia. It was first formally described by Scottish botanist Robert Brown in 1810. It grows as a woody shrub or small tree, anywhere from 1 to 9 m (3.3 to 29.5 ft) high, and has thick dark grey bark. The pale green-grey leaves are 8–35 cm (3.1–13.8 in) long and 0.4–3 cm (0.16–1.18 in) wide, and oblanceolate to linear-oblanceolate or falcate in shape. The yellow flowers appear from June to November, and the yellow-green fruit, known as drupes, appear from October to February. It grows along watercourses, gorges and sandstone outcrops, generally on sandstone-based or alluvial soils. Aborigines used the plant for medicinal purposes, such as an eye wash and to treat chest colds and diarrhoea. Attempts to cultivate it have failed, as plants planted into soil have perished.
