Persoonia oxycoccoides is a spreading to prostrate shrub that typically grows to a height of 90 cm (35 in) with smooth bark and sparsely to moderately hairy young branchlets. The leaves are elliptic to egg-shaped, 4–11 mm (0.16–0.43 in) long and 1.5–6 mm (0.059–0.236 in) wide. The flowers are arranged in groups of up to thirteen on a rachis up to 35 mm (1.4 in) long that continues to grow after flowering, each flower on a pedicel 2–5 mm (0.079–0.197 in) long with a leaf at its base. The tepals are yellow, 8–11 mm (0.31–0.43 in) long and glabrous. Flowering occurs from December to April.[2][3]
