Leaves and stems are in great focus - but can't still tell wether hairs are attached in the middle or at their ends. The rule of thumb I use in the Canberra is that S. behriana leaves tend to stand up like these are doing while S. sericea tend to be more flattened to the ground. But I don't think this is a fool proof ID method.

thanks M, I will check whether I have other photos that show details better.
