Tasmania has eight native species of Spyridium (Dusty millers). Spyridium is sometimes confused with  Pomaderris, but Spyridium species have petals that form tiny hoods over the stamens. These range from low prostrate shrubs to tall erect shrubs. Most species have flowers in heads surrounded by bracts that are often covered in white or rusty hairs.
