User's notes

Although leaves are not clearly alternate in the second photo, they are wider and more hairy suggesting stricta to me rather than communis

Wahlenbergia stricta subsp. alterna has been found not far from the ACT, but I don't think this plant fits that. PlantNet says: Leaves mostly alternate (only the lowermost opposite), 1–6 mm wide; corolla usually blue inside, white outside; style usually exerted above corolla tube
