Gompholobium huegelii, commonly known as Common Wedge-pea, is a perennial shrub native to a variety of habitats including heathlands, open forests, and forest margins in southeastern Australia, particularly in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, and Tasmania. It typically grows to a height of up to 3 feet (approximately 1 meter) with a similar spread. The plant has an erect or spreading habit and features trifoliate leaves that are characteristic of the Fabaceae family. Its flowers are pea-like, ranging in color from cream to yellow and occasionally greenish, and are known for their beauty during the long blooming season from September to April.

Common Wedge-pea is valued for its vibrant flowers and extended flowering period, making it a popular choice for native gardens, informal hedges, and as a feature plant in mixed borders. It is also used in restoration projects due to its adaptability to different soil types and conditions. Gompholobium huegelii prefers well-drained soils and can tolerate a range of light conditions from full sun to part shade. While it is relatively low-maintenance, it benefits from occasional pruning to maintain its shape and promote denser growth. There are no major disease problems associated with this plant, but it can be sensitive to root disturbance once established.CC BY-SA 4.0
