The bossiaeeae are plants with red and yellow flowers endemic to Australia. These pea-flowered shrubs, also called "The Egg-and-Bacon Peas of Australia," make up a tribe of legumes related to the mirbelieae. In fact, phylogenetic analysis suggests that the tribe bossiaeeae is monophyletic with the mirbelieae.
