Notes: Label source: These plants, mostly from New Zealand, grow in large tufts in mountainous areas. Each short branch is densely clothed in minute smooth or woolly leaves, with a single starry white flower in the apex of each twig. From a distance they mayl, ook very like sheep - hence the name sheep plant or vegetable sheep.
