Its flowers appear in spring in the leaf axils, tending to be clustered towards the ends of branches.[1] They are about 14 to 18 mm long and white or mauve, with a yellow-spotted throat.[1] The leaves are long and narrow, 10 to 50 mm long and 0.5 to 2 mm wide.[1] The species was first formally described by botanist Alan Cunningham in 1834 in Labiatarum Genera et Species.[2] Two varieties are recognised:[2]
In Victoria, areas where the species occurs include the You Yangs, the ranges around Bacchus Marsh, and Mount Korong and Mount Hope.[3] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/NSWfl.pl?page=nswfl&lvl=sp&name=Prostanthera~nivea |title=Prostanthera nivea |accessdate=2009-09-14 |author=|work= PlantNET - New South Wales Flora Online |publisher=Royal Botanic Gardens & Domain Trust, Sydney Australia}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q7250964}}{{Lamiaceae-stub}}{{Australia-asterid-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.anbg.gov.au/cgi-bin/apni?TAXON_NAME=Prostanthera+nivea|title= Prostanthera nivea |accessdate=2008-09-13 | work=Australian Plant Name Index (APNI), IBIS database|publisher = Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research, Australian Government, Canberra}} 3. ^{{cite book|author=George Bentham|title=Flora australiensis: a description of the plants of the Australian territory|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=I5cCAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA103|accessdate=22 April 2012|year=1870|pages=103–}} 6 : Prostanthera|Flora of Queensland|Flora of New South Wales|Flora of Victoria (Australia)|Lamiales of Australia|Plants described in 1834 |
