This specimen may be X. johnsonii, however this observation may be X. glauca or possibly X. malacophylla. The crowns are very full and heavy, the tall specimen in the second image looks to have at least two crowns, and although X. johnsonii may develop multiple crowns, the species is largely unbranched and simple. Without the presence of any flower spike, leaf close-up, leaf colour or cross-section profile, I can detect no specific characteristics that can determine these specimens to species level. This sighting appears inconclusive based on these images. Tapirlord, out of interest, what identification markers did you use to ID these as X. johnsonii?

Xanthorrhoea johnsonii

This was just in back behind the dunes themselves, but the soil is still essentially sand. Tall Blackbutt forest. I think whichever way we go it will be based on characters of the fruit as you say. I'll have to give this one more thought

Oxalis perennans

Guess it could be, that species was growing nearby. I'm just not used to seeing the foliage so sparse. That being said Aotus isn't a suggestion i'm happy with.

Aotus ericoides
