Ozothamnus ferrugineus (formerly known as Helichrysum dendroideum; Asteraceae) 2:335
This is large, much branched shrub that is common and widespread in wet forests. It grows after fire, and will persist for perhaps a few decades. It also grows along roadsides. The small inflorescences occur at the ends of the branches. It can be confused with O. thyrsoideus (which occurs in similar habitats), but which has the inflorescences scattered along the branches.
