prostrate in patch of many plants spreading with runners, like a smaller version of garden strawberry plants, under native cherry in a disturbed weedy location. Added photo of flower taken on 12 October, on the same plant shown in the first photo, grown on in a pot.

Not sure how to tell P. vesta from P. indica when only leaves present

Could be a case of waiting for the flowers to arrive

https://canberra.naturemapr.org/users/22862, should we wait for the flowers to confirm the species before including in the flora list? Tapirlord perhaps there's a vegetative feature to tell P vesta and P indica apart?

Not P. vesca as petal colour is yellow.
