Trichocline spathulata, common name native gerberam is a plant in the family Asteraceae,[2] found in the south-west of Western Australia.[3][1]

It was first described in 1836 by Allan Cunningham as Celmisia spathulata,[4][5] but was transferred to the genus Trichocline in 1967 by James Hamlyn Willis.[4][6]

The species epithet, spathulata, is a Latin adjective describing some part of the plant as being spoon-shaped.[7]
