Not sure about this one - Alan were you given or purchased a cutting at some stage? Not sure this is commercially available

Michael I honestly can't remember how I came by this one. I had forgotten it existed until I discovered it in the garden last year. I suspect i was given it as part of an experiment to see whether they could survive. It may have come from a GA local plant sale. That is possibly the most likely source. A couple of years ago they were selling the Rutidosis daisy at that sale. Alan

Lucky you Alan - I am very envious - could you watch out and please try and photograph any pollinators

I will try, but pollinators are Hard to catch. There are only six native bees (Apart from the honeybee) registered for this garden so far although there are a large number of flies. RAN452

Thanks Alan - a record on the Murrumbidgee Bossiaea would be nice to have - as would anything that is eating its leaves
