Today's offering is a pretty little paper daisy. Found widely in Queensland, NSW, Tasmania and South Australia but not much cultivated.

Seems a shame. The winged stems and silvery tints are distinctive. It does the sort of loose, free-flowering things that would make it a good native alternative in cottage, meadow or alpine gardens.
