Thank you Alan Dandie (Alan_Dandie) for identifying this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA), the Flinders Ranges and elsewhere An innocuous plant that, having identified it, is suddenly everywhere It has the tiniest little yellow flowers that look like 10 pin bowling pins. Through the year it changes appearance dramatically Over summer it sheds a lot of leaves and looks totally different to it's luscious spring time cover. | |||||
