This area of tall eucalypt forest with palms experienced a fire in mid-Nov 2019. The fire was part of a major blaze that burnt large tracts of forest on both sides of the NSW-Qld border.

In this gully many palm trees suffered scorching of their fronds; however, since then new fronds have appeared on most palm trees. The tall eucalypts show scorched bases. Subsequent regrowth of ground cover has been vigorous.

We had never seen this common local post-disturbance coloniser on our place (in 35+ years) until after the Sept 2018 wildfire. We now have a couple of patches totalling around 40 plants in our forest. Some are around 1.5m high, including this flowering one. It is the only one with any bud or flower on it, and there are no signs of past flowering on any of the plants, so seemingly it has taken nearly 4 years for them to get established and make it to the point of flowering, an unusually long period for a herbaceous daisy I would have thought.
