Description: Native, warm-season, biennial or perennial herb. Stems are covered with dense, matted white hairs and grow to 50 cm tall. Stolons are present. The basal rosette of leaves soon withers. Lower leaf surfaces are covered in dense matted silvery hairs, while the upper surfaces are shiny green and hairless. Flowerheads are clusters of small heads (1.5-3 mm wide) at the stem tips, surrounded by long leafy bracts; sometimes also in upper leaf axils. Flowering is from spring to autumn. Found in moister or shaded grassy areas of woodlands and forests. Native biodiversity. Of little importance to grazing animals, as it is a very minor component of pastures, produces very little bulk and is usually quite stemmy.
