Flannel Flower Actinotus helianthus is a common flower of coastal sandstone heath in eastern New South Wales. Although they look like daisies, they are actually related to carrots and parsley. It is one of the most recognised and iconic flowers of the Australian bush.
The whole plant is covered in a soft down that gives them their flannel like quality.
