Pomaderris parrisiae is a species of flowering plant in the family Rhamnaceae and is endemic to southern New South Wales. It is a shrub to small, slender tree with silvery-hairy branchlets, elliptic to lance-shaped leaves and panicles of hairy, creamy-yellow flowers. Description
Pomaderris parrisiae is a shrub to slender tree that typically grows to a height of up to , its branchlets and petioles covered with short, silvery hairs. The leaves are elliptic to lance-shaped, mostly  long and  wide with lance-shaped stipules about  long at the base, but that fall off as the leaf develops. The upper surface of the leaves is glabrous and the lower surface is covered with silvery star-shaped hairs. The flowers are borne in pyramid-shaped panicles  wide, each flower on a pedicel about  long. The sepals are oblong,  long, creamy-yellow and covered with star-shaped hairs on the back. The petals are egg-shaped with wavy edges, pale yellow and slightly shorter than the sepals. Flowering occurs in October and November and the fruit is a hairy capsule. Taxonomy
Pomaderris parrisiae was first formally described in 1990 by Neville Grant Walsh in the journal Muelleria from specimens collected in 1987. The specific epithet (parrisiae) honours Margaret Parris of Merimbula, who collected the type specimens. Distribution and habitat
