It certainly doesn't look like Oxylobium ellipticum to me! I will check it out over the weekend

I was going on the sharp tipped recurved leaves.

On initial observation, I thought the leaf margins were recurved. When I blew the photos up, it became ibvious that they were not.
These two species are like chalk and cheese in the field, when one can see the whole plant. One is usually upright, the other sprawling to prostrate.
