These two photographs look like *Pimelea linifolia* according to my rechecking the Flora of NSW .

Really, any hairs on the branches or leaves or bracts [situated beneath the flowers) ?

I’ve checked my other photos and none of them have a clearer definition. Given location, is there another pimelea that would be common? This one was everywhere and I believe they were all the same species although I guess it depends on how closely other species resemble this one. I sort of had to go 4 wheel driving in my Tesla to get to this location so I’m not keen to return to investigate and get clearer photos. 😊

Yeah i was just checking what you saw first hand that i could not as clearly see but was visually suggested in these photographs (cf. *Pimelea humilis*).
