Some months ago when I was in Narooma, the next town north of here, I noticed a palm* had some seeds and I grabbed some. About the size of a walnut they are. It has taken these many months but some have germinated and sprouted forth and these two I have transferred into a big garden bed which I am filling with Australian natives. I am reasonably sure the palms* are Australian also. They should grow to about 2 metres tall max and grow as a bunch of branches from a stump at ground level. Ah if only I knew exactly what they are, but the main thing is they’ll do a good job of adding some variety to the garden.
*(not necessarily palms but look similar)
