Garden escape. Possibly O. ecklonis. Removed this plant but there are several between track and houses.

Mike the leaf shape makes this more likely to be Dimorphotheca ecklonis (African Daisy). It has been collected before in the ACT, but is considered doubtfully naturalised. A specimen is probably worth depositing with Black Mountain CSIRO.
