Upon first glance, this little bush near the Pipeline Track at Ridgeway resembled an Allocasuarina. However the branch/leaf structure is quite different on close inspection. I hadn't seen these little white berries before, but I had seen similar ones (with the little 'nut' on top) in other colours. This led me to identify it as
Exocarpos strictus, using the
vascular plant key at the UTas website.
