- This blog is a simple collection of photos from the area affected by the Black Saturday bushfire 2009. The aim is to document how the natural environment is recovering and the diversity of species that are re-appearing. Please leave a comment if you find errors with identification or can put a name to some of the photos I haven't been able to identify. Photos are taken using a compact camera and often with very little time so they may not always be perfectly in focus but I have included them in the hope that someone may be able to help with an ID.
I'd be pretty confident this will be Senecio minimus but I wouldn't discard S.odoratus yet.

I did intially guess minimus but the leaves are over 9cm.
ReplyDeleteYou should have trusted your initial instinct I think. I don't know where you got the 9cm from but S.minimus leaves can get to 20cm.
ReplyDeleteBTW ... there's Bidgee Widgee to the left of the shot, maybe a Crassula bottom-centre and top-right and sticking its nose in the bottom-right might be Senecio glomeratus?

Flora of Melbourne says " leaves to 90mm, sometimes larger". These are easily 150mm. I'll update the name.
