Woolly Pointed Everlasting

Description:

Coronidium oxylepis ssp. lanatum, commonly known as "woolly pointed everlasting", is an Australian native perennial herb belonging to the family Asteraceae. Coronidium is a genus of flowering plants in the sunflower family. Plants can grow up to 60 cm high, and they produce these stunning yellow flowers which were glowing in the sunlight. The name of this national park is Girraween, which means "place of flowers".

Habitat:

Spotted in sclerophyll forest in Girraween National Park, along the Peak Trail. Remote, sandy soils and lots of granite boulders, substantial undergrowth and leaf litter, particularly since the drought has broken, and sections of the track were still damp from recent rains.
