I think this is longifolia rather than aculeata because one of the leaves in photo 3 is basically flat and none of the other leaves really look sort of cylindrical in cross section as in aculeata. Cassinia longifolia leaves are 1-9 mm wide, the edges curved down, while aculeata subsp. aculeata leaves are 0.7-2 mm wide, the edges rolled down.
