Stackhousia monogyna, commonly known as creamy stackhousia or creamy candles, is a perennial herb species in the family Celastraceae. It is native to Australia. Plants grow to 70 cm (28 in) high and produce a terminal spike of white, cream or yellow flowers between August and January in the species native range.[1][2]

The species was first formally described in 1805 by French naturalist Jacques Labillardière in Novae Hollandiae Plantarum Specimen. His description was based on plant material collected in Tasmania.[1]
