Pomaderris lanigera
Pomaderris lanigera is a common plant from eastern and southern Australia. Often seen around 2 or 3 m tall, with furry leaves, 6 to 10 cm long, 1.5 to 3 cm wide. Leaf hairs appear woolly, of a silvery grey or rusty brown colour. Attractive golden flowers in August and September. The specific epithet lanigera comes from the Latin, meaning "woolly".[1] The habitat varies, but it is often seen in moist gullies along the coast and nearby ranges.[2]
