Summary

[edit]
Description Native, warm-season, perennial, very variable, tufted, upright or creeping, often greyish green herb; often less than 40 cm tall, but can grow to 70 cm tall. Leaves are 1-6 cm long, 4-25 mm wide and linear-lanceolate, narrow obovate to spathulate. Flowerheads are compact clusters of 7-15 mm wide golden yellow heads at the end of the stems. Flowering is mostly in spring and summer. Found in open and disturbed areas of native pastures, woodlands and forests; usually on sandy or stony soils. Native biodiversity. Has been recorded as causing blindness in stock, but it is usually grazed without problems. Palatable to stock and can be grazed out under continuous stocking. Overgrazing is more likely in spring and autumn when feed is scarce or the quality of other pasture species is reduced. Overgrazing can be avoided by providing regular rests from grazing or using low stocking rates (less reliable).
