Edgeworthia is a genus named in honour of Michael Pakenham Edgeworth (1812–1881), an Irish-born Victorian era amateur botanist, who worked for the East India Company, and for his sister, writer Maria Edgeworth. The species name chrysantha derives from the Greek chrusos meaning ‘golden’ and ‘anthos’ meaning flower, due to the gold coloured flowers.

Edgeworthia chrysantha (Paperbush) is a deciduous shrub with dark green, leathery, single, alternate, lanceolate leaves, 8–13 cm long.
