The dominant plant in this small heath patch at 14 months after its winter 2023 burn. Prior to that it was long unburnt and shrubs were starting to die off. Shrub recovery is occurring now, but some species may have been lost with the long interval between fires. The last fire in the general area was in the late 70's or early 80's.

Possibly its first post-fire flowering after the winter 2023 fire in this small heath patch. The fact that we took no photos of it in Feb 2024 at 8 mths post-fire suggests it wasn't flowering then. Both P. glabrata and sericea are present here.

In a boggy drainage line at c. 740m elevation. In the 3rd photo the Lobelia surrepens leaves, c. 10mm long, give a bit of scale for the Myriophyllum leaves, also around 10mm long and so it has to be M. peducnulatum and not the shorter-leaved (to 3mm) M. lophatum, which also occurs on the Southern Tablelands.

Patchily plentiful in the less manicured part of the cemetery, where exotic grasses have not yet taken hold. It seems to be coping well with regular mowing, being naturally prostrate. Acrotriche serrulata, which has the same habit, is also present. There are few other non-grass natives left in this cemetery, other than encroaching tree and shrub regen on the eastern edge adjacent to forest.
