About

Olearia tenuifolia, commonly known as the thin-leaf daisy-bush, is a small shrub that is endemic to the south-east of continental Australia and has narrow leaves and clusters of blue, deep mauve to purple flowers.

Where it grows

Thin-leaf daisy-bush grows in New South Wales in woodland, mallee and sclerophyll forests mostly in rocky locations south of Dunedoo and west of Griffith. In Victoria it is considered rare and grows in rocky, dry locations in the Licola Creek and Valencia Creek area, and the upper Buchan River valley and Pine Mountain district.
