There is a remote possibility it could be Rutidosis leptorhynchoides. Unfortunately the keys in PlantNet and VicFlora separate theses two genera on whether the seeds have fine bristles (Leptorhynchos) or scales (Rutidosus)

Counted plants on 19 November 2016 - 160 plants present a relatively large population of this regionally rare plant
