Thanks Jackie. The reason I did not suggest Grey Pomaderris for this one is that it was a lot greener than the other one which I did ID, and I am more used to that grey colour, though the green one did remind me of Pomaderris in form and leaf shape. Evidently there is variation in colour of the leaves in this species?

Not a lot that I've noticed, but maybe ones growing in shade are greener than ones in sun? This still looks OK for cinerea to me. The green foliaged ones are usually dark green on top, and whitish underneath. But in future a closer shot of the stem and the leaf top and bottom surface would be good. You were just lucky this time that it's a distinctive species. I wouldn't be ID'ing many other Pomaderris species on the basis of photos like these! I often also bend the leaf over my finger and take a side-on shot of the lower surface to show whether the hairs are long or short, stellate or simple, confined to veins or all over, all crucial info for most Pom species, but happily not for cinerea.
