Indigofera australis, the Australian indigo or Austral indigo, is an attractive species of leguminous shrub in the genus Indigofera (family Fabaceae).[1] The genus name Indigofera is Neo-Latin for "bearing Indigo" (Indigo is a purple dye originally obtained from some Indigofera species). The specific epithet australis, from the Latin, means not “Australian” but "southern", referring to the geographical distribution of the species.[2]
