Very hard to tell as this is a young plant, but it looks like C.austrotenuifolia

I thought it was different from the plant nearby but perhaps that was just different ages.

C. austrotenuifolia is quite variable, depending on the immediate environment. In benign environments (eg in pine plantations) they can be large and lacy.
