Calothamnus quadrifidus
About 2 metres tall, soft, smoky leafed, woody shrub. Flowers develop on main stems part-way along instead of at tips and only on one side of the stem. Leaves also grow straight from the stems.
Planted in a local suburban park.
Thanks Leuba for direction. Myrtaceae - not a cultivar - great!

Or visa versa?
Oh yes Mark! I saw these and they do look like caterpillars! Very cool!
Beautiful flowers, Mark, but I can't help with an ID. Do like the smiley face though.
