User's notes

These two plants are at the extreme south-eastern corner of the Dryandra Street Woodland so, if D. nigromontana, they represent the southernmost edge of the distribution for this species in the DSW.

I would say it is D. nigromontana based on those markings.

Thanks, Matt
I will try to catch them in full flower, to confirm.
