Pultenaea daphnoides (large-leaf bush-pea) is a shrub which is endemic to Australia. It is a member of the genus Pultenaea and the family Fabaceae.

The species is an erect shrub that can grow to between 1 and 3 metres high.[2] The leaves are cuneate to obovate and 5 to 40 mm in length and 2 to 11 mm in width.[3]

The pea flowers, which appear in dense terminal heads in spring and summer, are yellow with red markings.[4] The pods which follow are flattened and 5 to 7 mm long.[3]

The species was formally described by German botanist Johann Christoph Wendland in 1798 in Botanische Beobachtungen.[1]

It occurs in heath to wet sclerophyll forest in South Australia, Victoria, Tasmania, New South Wales and Queensland.[3]
