Identification help - flower from Western Australia

Can anyone help identify this flower? It was from the botanical gardens in the Camden area of Sydney Australia. I think it's from Western Australia.



Thanks

 

I'll guess something in the genus Ptilotus.

Examples, but not exact matches:

Ptilotus manglesii (and here, too)

About a 100 species in Australia.

 

Thanks, I suspected it might be from ptilotus too because there were a lot of them around the area. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to ask the guides there. Thanks for the help

 

Have you tried an email to their garden? I'd be interested to know what the actual ID is.

 

I'll be visiting the garden soon anyway, I just wanted quick clarification. Thanks anyway guys
