Two new species of Plectranthus L’Hér. are described from tropical Queensland. Both Plectranthus laxus T.C.Wilson & P.I.Forst. and P. wallamanensis T.C.Wilson & P.I.Forst. are perennial suffrutescent shrubs found in open, exposed rocky habitats in the Wet Tropics bioregion. Both species are illustrated and notes on habitat, distribution, affinities and conservation status are provided. A revised key for Plectranthus in Queensland and the Australian tropics is presented.
