Asterolasia trymalioides
Asterolasia trymalioides, commonly known as alpine star-bush, is a species of erect, sometimes prostrate shrub that is endemic to eastern Australia. It has leathery, narrow elliptical to circular leaves densely covered with star-shaped hairs on the lower surface, and yellow flowers arranged singly in small groups on the ends of branchlets, the back of the petals covered with brown, star-shaped hairs.
Alpine star-bush grows in alpine and subalpine grassland, heathland and snow gum (Eucalyptus pauciflora) forest of New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory and Victoria.
