Gaultheria cuneata is a species of flowering plant in the family Ericaceae, native to western China. It is a densely branched, dwarf, evergreen shrub growing to 30 cm tall by 100 cm wide, with narrow glossy green leaves and white flowers in spring followed by white berries 1 cm in diameter in autumn. Like others of its family, it is a calcifuge, preferring an acid peaty soil. In cultivation it is used as groundcover for underplanting larger shrubs.
