Leucopogon pimeleoides is a shrub with silky-hairy branchlets and narrowly egg-shaped leaves. The flowers are arranged in spikes 3–39 mm (0.12–1.54 in) long with 2 to 16 flowers, with pointed sepals and bracteoles. The petals are white and joined at the base to form a tube that is shorter than the sepals, with bearded lobes.[2]
