User's notes

looks like a lily perhaps - damp location near point 6 on wetland walk - compare flower size with swamp isotome flower in second photo - in association with brooklime, loosestrife, kidney weed

looks similar to Sisyrinchium rosulatum but yellow petals
compare https://keyserver.lucidcentral.org/weeds/data/media/Html/sisyrinchium_iridifolium.htm which has image of yellow form

It is a species of Sisyrinchium, but the taxonomy is a bit of a mess!

I kept the plant to press, if that helps

Based on the most recent descriptions of Sisyrinchium species in the Flora of NSW and Flora of Victoria, it best fits Sisyrinchium rosulatum. It was very useful that you included a scale in one photo; thanks!
