User's notes

Along fence line next to track. Flowers rusty red-orange - expired? Fruit and flowers look more suggestive of Lissanthe strigosa?

My initial thought was Astroloma humifusum, which has red flowers, though the arrangement of the leaves is too far apart for that.
One of the photos of Lissanthe strigosa in Vicflora has flowers with pinky red buds, which could easily turn the colour of the spent flowers in these photos.
