Sticky Everlasting

Sticky Everlasting Xerochrysum viscosum. The flowers are quite dry- I remember calling these "paper daisies" as a child.  The leaves and stems are sticky.

Clustered Everlasting

Clustered Everlasting Chrysocephalum semipapposum. Shrub to 1m. The leaves are very like Cassinia.

Close up of the dry flowers.

Buttercups

Buttercups Ranunculus spp.  Any yellow flower with five petals that shines like it has been lacquered. Apparently there are 15 Australian species which are not easy to tell apart.

Mountain Kangaroo Apple

The Mountain Kangaroo Apple Solanum linearifolium is a large bush up to 4m and quite striking covered in purple flowers, looking a bit like an exotic garden escapee. The fruit will be yellow and is apparently edible when very ripe only.

Yam Daisy

The tuberous root of the Yam Diasy Microseris lanceolata is edible.  One flower per bare stem and long thin leaves at the base of the plant.
