Dracophyllum secundum is a straggling plant which usually grows out of crevices in wet rocky ledges.

The stems are up to 50 cm long, with stiff leaves, 5-10 cm long, clasping the stem. They leave scars on the stem after being shed.

The pinkish-white floral tubes are 8-10mm long, arranged on the lower side only of the ends of the stems.

Dracophyllum secundum flowers mainly from August - October
