1st scan shows Erigeron sumatrensis to the left and for comparison E. bonariensies with blueish-green foliage and purply coloured bracts to the right; the 2nd photo close up of seed heads by Barbara Read and I took the 3rd photo in the field - they are all from same specimen

E. bonariensis does not always have the purply coloured bracts - " with many florets, white to pink, sometimes tinged purple" https://apps.lucidcentral.org/plants_se_nsw/text/entities/erigeron_bonariensis.htm

The E. sumatrensis flowers have "involucral bracts hirsute, green with paler glabrous margins, inner surface reddish brown when reflexed" as described in https://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/NSWfl.pl?page=nswfl&lvl=sp&name=Conyza~sumatrensis accessed 13/06/2022.
