User's notes
Low growing shrub about 10-15cm tall, in patches along the bank of a creek, including some areas above normal flood level. In places a patch covers the ground for several square metres. Disappear in early winter (die back and/or get eaten?) and reappear in early summer, with patches same locations as those from previous seasons. These are over a stetch of 1km upstream from previous sighting of A. semibaccata (4656220), which was a solitary and significantly larger plant.
