Ideally I would like to see the leaf as well for an ID. There are several similar species that are mostly distinguished by the leaves.

Thanks Matt, I will see if I can get some more photos. I went for T pauciflora because I have photos from other years and Tony Wood came out and looked at them. They are all quite similar and it's a great little spot.

What do you need to see to be able to identify the various species? I know several plants about to flower.

Hi Mike. Preferably front and side images of the column, and an image of the leaf.
