GPSed. See dense low spreading forb or shrub with small pointed leaves in pics. Leaning towards the exotic Paronychia brasiliana (Brazilian Whitlow) or possibly Styphelia humifusum (Cranberry Heath)?

Hi Michael, is the finer scale matted growth below the flowering C. glomeratum also C. glomeratum? If so I'll delete this sighting as it doubles up on Meredith's confirmation https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4730534.
