    Can anybody help with the identification, please?
    Is it one of the Scaevola sp?
    It is flowering now in Perth (Western Australia) hills area.

    Thanks!

    Need to see the whole plant to get an idea of what it is.

    First impression is Lobelia or a related genus.

    Mplant, it is not Lechenaultia, it doesn't have that hanging bit this one does.

    This is my shot of Lechenaultia biloba. They look very similar, but without the additional bit.

    I'm no plant expert, but could it be a subspecies of Lechenaultia biloba?
