Thryptomene baeckeacea is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to Western Australia. It is a shrub that typically grows to a height of 0.2–1.2 m (7.9 in – 3 ft 11.2 in) and produces white, pink or purple flowers between May and October in the species' native range.[2] It was first formally described in 1864 by Ferdinand von Mueller in Fragmenta phytographiae Australiae from specimens collected by Augustus Oldfield near the Murchison River.[3][4]
