Malesherbia paniculata is perennial subshrub native to the Atacama, Coquimbo, Valparaíso, Metropolitana, and O'Higgins regions of Chile.[1][2][3] It can be found at elevations of up to 2600m to sea level.[3] It was originally described in 1827 by D. Don.[4]

Phenotypically, M. paniculata is extremely similar to sister species M. linearifolia. Though they are distinguishable by their leaves.[5] Additionally, they differ in their species range.[5]
