This plant is G.lanigera, which has paler cream and pink flowers and occurs in these open forests of the lower cotter catchment. G.alpina has yellow and red flowers and likes dry woodlands with a more closed canopy at lower elevation. Both species have a similar leaf shape.

Yes thanks for the explanation. I just accidentally hit confirm on alpina first but corrected my error afterwards, so sorry for any confusion caused.
