There are more than a hundred Cassinia here but I am not sure that they are all the same species.

I think most if not all the Cassinias in the Dryandra st Woodland are this species

I had thought so. Do they have a mass flowering event so that I can check?

No Cassinia longifolia is the most likely other cassinia a on site - Its flowers have flat top Cauliflower or corymb shape while those of quinquefaria tend to be pyramid shaped
