@DrDJDavidJ . Good afternoon !

Could this _Tasmannia_ identify to _Tasmannia xerophila_ ? Perhaps i say. So I am asking you to check which _Tasmannia_ species please.
Fruits make it easy to identify which of these two species.

In your third photograph here, the wonderful white fruiting, shrub, different species: _Gaultheria appressa_ A.W.Hill 'wax berry' .

Please refer to the Flora of Vic. online VicFlora:

Please create, if you will, a new sighting with this third photograph 'wax berry';
presumably of this same location date–time.

When you do, i will provide confirmed identification of both of these sightings of these two species.

Regards,
Jason.
