This is the first record of this plant in the ACT outside of the Molonglo Valley, I had been wondering whether it may have been an introduction to our area, but was leaning towards it being a native - this record makes me think even more that it is local to the Canberra area.

I guess it is another one of those scruffy plants that doesn't attract attention. It also occurs near the Murrumbidgee to the north of Tharwa.
