Carmichaelia stevensonii is a rare native broom with weeping leafless branches. It is endemic to the South Island and is confined to inland river valleys of South Marlborough between 450-750 masl. This shrub will grow in the wild to a height of >10m and can have a spread >2.5m.
In December to January when the tree is at least 6 to 7 years old it will produce racemes of small, pea-like white flowers with pink radiating lines. Though rare in the wild it is now sold in specialised nurseries.
