I have seen the grey-green and fleshier green forms of common everlasting growing together on Red Hill and elsewhere. I have always thought in strange that you tend to get mono-variety clumps of the two forms rather than intermingled occurrences. It is a widespread and variable species so perhaps we haven't quite worked out the taxonomy or perhaps it is just a genetically diverse species.
