Cryptandra nutans is a species of flowering plant in the family Rhamnaceae and is endemic to the southwest of Western Australia. It is a shrub that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and has many stems at ground level. Its leaves are up to Шаблон:Cvt long, and the flowers are white, pink or cream-coloured and crowded in spikes on the ends of branches. The sepals are joined at the base to form a broadly bell-shaped tube, less than Шаблон:Cvt long with spreading lobes.[1] Flowering occurs in August and September.[2] It was first formally described in 1845 by Ernst Gottlieb von Steudel in Lehmann's Plantae Preissianae from specimens collected in 1840.[3][4] The specific epithet (nutans) means "nodding".[5]
This cryptandra grows in gravelly sand or clayey soils over laterite in the Avon Wheatbelt, Coolgardie, Esperance Plains, Geraldton Sandplains, Jarrah Forest, Mallee and Swan Coastal Plain bioregions of south-western Western Australia.[2]
