Phebalium daviesii, also known as St Helens wax flower or Davies' wax flower, is a shrub species endemic to a small area in Tasmania. It is covered in silvery or rust-coloured scales and has narrow wedge-shaped leaves and white to cream-coloured flowers. It was first described in 1859 and is listed as critically endangered due to its small population size and susceptibility to threats such as flooding and fungus. It has been successfully propagated in plant nurseries and was chosen as the Tasmanian Federation Flower in 2001.
