I probably should not have confirmed this, and would not have done so if had been anywhere other than Black Mountain. The commonest species of Trigger plant in most of the ACT is Stylidium armerium, which has much broader leaves, the back of which are different from those of Stylidium graminifolium. Stylidium montanum may also be present in the ACT, at high altitudes.
