Olearia megalophylla

Olearia megalophylla, the large-leaf daisy bush, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is a shrub up to 2 metres high with scattered leaves. These are dark green above, woolly underneath, and are 20 to 120 mm long and 6 to 28 mm wide. The flower heads have 5 to 9 white ray florets and 9 to 14 yellow disc florets. The species was first formally described by Ferdinand von Mueller in "Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania " in 1859 and named "Eurybia megalophylla". In 1865, he placed the species in the genus "Aster" and finally in "Olearia" in 1867. It occurs in moist sclerophyll forest in south-eastern New South Wales and Victoria.
