It took me a long time to identify it as it was in fruit, not flower, but I finally tracked it down to the Delicate Laurel (Tetracarpaea tasmannica). This is a Tasmanian endemic that has caused problems in its associations. It has variously been placed in the Cunoniaceae, Grossulariaceae, Escalloniaceae, and the Saxifragaceae, but I believe it is now given a family of its own, the Tetracarpaeaceae. Could you therefore please add Tetracarpaea to the approved genus list, and Tetracarpaeaceae to the approved family list/ Ken |
