Photos of flora and fauna recovery after the Black Saturday Bushfires, Victoria Australia, February 2009
I'd guess at either R.plebius or R.lappaceus. If you get a pic of the sepals underneath the flower it might be possible to key out. In R.plebius the sepals are reflexed (bent backwards and downwards) and in R.lappaceus they are spreading (about 90 degrees). The leaf structure looks like R.lappaceus but I think both can have that trifoliate appearance.

I guess I better go back and get a picture of the Sepals.....
ReplyDeleteThanks Russell, I've changed the name to lappaceus.
