Erigeron flettii is a rare North American species of flowering plants in the daisy family known by the common names Flett’s fleabane or Olympic Mountains fleabane .

Erigeron flettii is native to the northwestern United States. It has been only on the Olympic Peninsula in the State of Washington. Many of the populations lie inside Olympic National Park.

Erigeron flettii is a small perennial herb up to 15 centimeters (8 inches) in height. Most of the leaves are clustered around the base of the stems. They are lance-shaped, dark green on most of the blade but with white along the edge. The plant generally produces only 1 flower head per stem, each head as many as 40 white ray florets surrounding numerous yellow disc florets.
