I am not so sure about this one. I key this out to T. brevifolia on VicFlora, but the leaf seems so narrow I am not convinced. Would you happen to have more images, or know if the underside of the leaf was ribbed?

Seems like one of the larger flower ones, no? What about Thely nuda?

No, it is not one of the large flowered plant, flowers slightly bigger (i.e. more open) than the T. brevifolia already ID'd earlier from this site

I do not recall that the leaf on this plant was ribbed, photos taken would suggest it is not

I probably got T. brevifolia when I assumed the flower was small and followed that path down the key.
