Wow Jackie they're both so similar how interesting. It's in spotted gum forest 100m behind Mystery Bay beach headlands on the way towards Pooles beach, it's open forest there, and there are lots of them opening up this week in patches about 2-3m apart. I've had a look at both species and couldn't really say from either of the descriptions on ANSPA or PLANTNET, thanks for the interesting info. Is there another picture I could collect that could help verify? I will try and get something which shows the plant base a bit better. Thanks again
