About

Olearia ramosissima, commonly known as much-branched daisy bush, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae and is endemic to continental Australia. It is a straggly shrub with densely-crowded, elliptic, egg-shaped or triangular leaves, and blue to violet and blue or yellow, daisy-like inflorescences.

Where it grows

Much-branched daisy bush has a disjunct distribution, occurring in the south-west of Western Australia, and in south-east Queensland and northern New South Wales in eastern Australia. In eastern Australia it grows in forest, mainly on the slopes and tablelands north from Narrabri. In Western Australia it grows on undulating plains on clay flats in the Coolgardie, Esperance Plains, Hampton and Mallee bioregions in the south of that state.
