I am revisiting sightings of Hovea linearis on the CNM site. Plantnet states that it is coastal or near coastal. There is one specimen of it in the Australian National Herbarium from north of Braidwood. There are lots of sightings on ALA a lot nearer, but few or no photos, and I suspect most of them are misIDs.
Yes, I did wonder when I took the recent photos - I knew I had identified other/s as H. linearis but I have to confess that it was no more than an idle thought.
