Goodia lotifolia, commonly known as golden tip or clover tree, is a shrub species in the pea family, Fabaceae.[2][1] It is endemic to south-eastern Australia. Plants grow to 4 metres and have trifoliate leaves. Yellow flowers appear in racemes in spring. The seed pods are around 25 mm long.[2] The species was first formally described in 1806 by botanist Richard Salisbury in The Paradisus Londinensis.[1] Two varieties are currently recognised:
- Goodia lotifolia Salisb. var. lotifolia
- Goodia lotifolia var. pubescens (Sims) H.B.Will.
