That was my first thought as well, but i've never seen one with foliage quite that long.

@natureguy Luke any ideas here? It could be B.aculeata i suppose, but this would be very early (it still hasn't flowered in the hills here), & it looks a bit odd.

It does seem to suit aculeata the best. Does look a bit odd but VicFlora also says the leaves can be up to 15cm long (exceptionally) so might be okay in regards to leaf length. Flowering is given as Oct-Apr so again probably okay. Still seems a little bit odd though so not 100% certain
