Hakea sulcata, commonly known as Furrowed Hakea, is a flowering shrub native to the sandy and gravelly soils of heathlands and open woodlands in Western Australia. This evergreen plant is part of the diverse Proteaceae family and is particularly adapted to dry, nutrient-poor conditions. Furrowed Hakea typically grows to a height of 0.4 to 2 meters (1 to 7 ft) and features stiff, grooved, cylindrical leaves that contribute to its prickly appearance. The inflorescence comprises 8-14 white, sweetly scented flowers arranged in single racemes, blooming in clusters from the leaf axils or on old wood. The flowers are followed by relatively small fruit which are woody follicles.

Furrowed Hakea is valued for its drought tolerance and unique foliage, making it suitable for xeriscaping and as an ornamental in gardens that experience dry conditions. It thrives in full sun and requires minimal water once established, preferring soils with fast drainage. While it is not widely cultivated outside its native range, it can be a distinctive addition to rockeries and native plant gardens. Gardeners should handle this plant with care due to its prickly nature, and it is advisable to plant it where it will not be brushed against frequently.CC BY-SA 4.0
