Notes:
Local. Clearly very distinct from Epacris pauciflora. Amongst the differences are the lack of flowers (E.pauciflora flowers all year round); ecology; bright green, thicker and longer leaves, with blunt cream apices and bushy shrub habit (2 × 2m). Often epiphytic on Lepidothamnus trees.Det by collector: Epacris sinclairiiDUPLICATES SENT TO: CHR, F
