Ah, don't want to question the experts but this really doesn't seem to have the right flower structure for a Kunzea?

i'll get you to elabroate if that's ok? The way the nuts are shapes rules out Leptospermum and Gaudium, in those species they are much rounder.

OK! I am no taxonomist and usually differentiate the Kunzea and the Leptospermum by the length of their filaments! I was just making sure that the wrong species wasn't accidentally selected through a slip of the mouse or something!! :)
