I note the location is in a backyard, however I take it this was within Aranda Bushland proper?

I do think it is D.roseum, but will suggest genus only depending on how likely we think D.punctatum is

The stem colour is green, not red. I have both at KV and from the stem I think it’s D. roseum

Stem colour isn't a diagnostic feature. I agree that the plant is likely D.roseum, but will leave Matt to make that call

Thanks for updating the location. The updated location is an area where I was shown a population of D. roseum maybe 7 years ago. Glad they are still persisting.

I would have loved to see it when it was flowering. It would have been magnificent.
