Paper Daisy



The Paper Daisy feels like paper.
Helichrysum acuminatum.
'It grows in alpine areas of Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales and the A.C.T. It is also known as the Orange Everlasting. Each tall stem bears a single head of golden flowers, which bloom in the summer months. A member of the family Compositae' (Wildflowers of Australia, Morcombe, 1974)
