The toothed leavesanc shape of the bud/spent flower suggest Hypochaeris radicata. https://apps.lucidcentral.org/plants_se_nsw/text/entities/hypochaeris_radicata.htm
The teeth on Taraxacum leaves more angled backwards.

With 2 plants in the photo, I think both suggestions are correct. Toni seems to be interested in the Euchiton.

Hi Betty, I am interested to learn about all our plants, just one was more obvious.

Toni, we can only confirm one species per sighting. Which do you prefer? You would to have to put in a separate sighting for the other.

I did not notice the Euchiton till just now. It is much better if there is only one species per photo. If you do not have software that can crop photos, perhaps delete this sighting and put up two new ones, one for each plant.

When I confirmed the Euchiton the Timeline showed we had a duplicate sighting. This is the same photo as for:
https://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Sightings/Details/3871532
So I confirmed the Hypochaeris radicata.
