Several of these shrubs were observed along the walking track. This plant is part of the genus Isopogon with its distinct spherical shaped inflorescence.
Using Les Robinson’s 2003 Book “Field Guide to the Native Plants of Sydney”, the leaves on this plant appear to match those of Isopogon anemonifolius as it is not as heavily dissected as those of I. anethifolius.
Paperbark tree.
