Pimelea axiflora subsp. alpina

Similar to subspecies axiflora but a small compact plant with thicker, smaller leaves, less hairy flowers and glabrous bracts. Plants growing near Mt Wellington (c. 25 km north-east of Licola) are somewhat intermediate between the 2 subspecies, having slightly to moderately hairy flowers, slightly hairy bracts and stiff leaves to 22 mm long.
