Hmm I'm not entirely sure as I don't think this is one of the known areas for that species. @Tapirlord?

It has been recorded around the upper Nepean. I think I’ll try and find time to go down and have another look at it and get some better photos.

A number of Hibbertia praemorsa (Bundanoon Guinea Flower) have been recorded both at View Point and also down Hell Hole track

Could well be it. I’ll have another look tomorrow.

That may be more likely, perhaps worth collecting a specimen if you are unsure. Hibbertia are a nightmare to try and key off images.

I think that @Daisy is correct, this keys out to H. praemorsa, at least to the best of my ability. There are a lot of plants growing along an approximately 100 m stretch of the Hell Hole fire trail (or what's left of it). I have plenty more photos, but these are all I could upload.

I have worked with the Botanic Gardens staff collecting this species, and also been successful in collecting seed for them too.

@Daisy, then you must be very familiar with it! Unfortunately I can't find it in the database, so can't put it as a suggestion.
