Hakea leucoptera subsp. leucoptera, commonly known as silver needlewood, needlewood, needle bush, needle hakea[2] or kulua,[3] is a shrub or small tree with cylinder-shaped leaves and with flowers which have a covering of white, woolly hairs on the flower stalks. It is found in western New South Wales, north-western Victoria, South Australia and the Northern Territory. It grows in grassland, shrubland and woodland.[2][3]

Taxonomy and naming

Hakea leucoptera was first formally described in 1810 by Robert Brown and the description was published in Transactions of the Linnean Society of London.[4][5] In 1996 William Baker described two subspecies of H. leucoptera including this subspecies and subspecies sericipes.[6]
