Thanks - this plant is on our rare plant list but sightings on Canberra Nature Map indicate that thankfully it is more abundant than previously reported and I will eb recommending that we take it off the rare list

I probably was conservative with my guess-timate of numbers here. I like having the option of being able to put in a range, rather than spot on numbers. If I was to try and come up with closer to exact numbers here, it should be done with drone footage, seeing as they were growing over a decent area, and scattered down a very steep slope as well as on the ridge-line. I like the idea of being a 'spotter'. I look for things on my morning walk, spot it, and though I'm happy to go back and get more photos, and then the experts can take over. It works in nicely with what I am already doing, exploring Canberra places. :-)
