I've spoken to Colleen but, alas, no real luck. She doesn't sell seed or know anyone in Australia who sells. H. heterophyllus seed. She suggested two European suppliers, B&T Seeds and Sunshine Seeds in Holland: http://www.sunshine-seeds.de You're probably familiar with both ... and unlikely to find what you want there. The only Aussie supplier she knew of was a West Australian company (probably the one Pete was thinking of), but they have predominantly Alyogyne:

Perhaps you could get in touch with them and ask if they could find some H. heterophyllus seeds?

Here is the so-called Alyogyne at left and Barambah Creek at right. Another difference: the leaflets on the Alyogyne seem narrower than those on BC.
