Goodeniaceae
Brunonia australis
Brunonia australis is a silky hairy herb commonly known as Blue Pincushion. Many crowded flowers give the 'pincushion' effect. Individual flowers are tubular at the base with petals lobed at the top (the base of the pincushion) and the reproductive part raised above the petals.
The tubular nature of the flower suggest that an insect with long mouthparts acts as pollinating agent.
