this is the same plant as in https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4359975 photographed in 2020. 4 plants were seen in this locality and a small sample taken for id by a botanist.
Returned 5 Feb 2022 and took small root sample - plant at that stage completely dried.

Sorry, Barb did you take a sample now? I can't remember whether the previous sample was used for id..

will have to get another sample this spring - sample taken last November went mouldy or something, so no ID confirmed

the species is (still) not in the Census so a good sample for the Bot Garden herbarium would be great!

This strongly resembles Senecio campylocarpus, which leaves just slightly broader than Senecio Senecio quadridentatus and cottony hairs on both upper and lower leaf surfaces. The leaves also remains entire.
