Eugenia pearsoniana is a species of plant in the family Myrtaceae. It is a tree endemic to Peninsular Malaysia. It is threatened by habitat loss.[1]

The plant typically grows as a shrub or small tree. The species is valued for its glossy, evergreen leaves, which provide a dense, bushy canopy. The tree can reach up to 10 meters in height under optimal conditions, but it is more commonly found as a smaller shrub in the wild.
