The aim of this project was to survey known populations of Velvet Daisy-bush in four broad areas across the state, identify threats and undertake protection measures.
The vulnerable Velvet Daisy-bush exists in a number of small populations across Victoria on public and private land. Some populations contain only one or two plants and some previously recorded populations have now disappeared. The main threat to the species is poor health and low viable seed production due to heavy browsing by herbivores, particularly Swamp Wallaby.
