Thank you Dr Kym Nicolson for confirming the id of this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA), the Riverland and elsewhere From a distance, very easy to confuse with Pearl Bluebush in shape and colour (hence the name we suspect). Up close it's easy to spot the difference. Generally larger than the Pearl Bluebush in our area. Similar Species: Pearl Bluebush (Maireana sedifolia) | |||||
