Celmisia tomentella is a species of perennial herb in the family Asteraceae. Leaves are 5 to 30 cm long and 5 to 15 mm wide, with a dark green or grey green upper surface. The daisy-like flowerheads, which are 6 to 8 cm in diameter, appear between December and February in the species native range.[1] The species was first formally described in 1999 in New species and a new combination in Australian Celmisia (Asteraceae-Astereae) published in Australian Systematic Botany. [2] It occurs in woodland, heath and bogs in subalpine areas including the Baw Baw plateau, the Bogong High Plains and Mount Buffalo in Victoria and northward into south-eastern New South Wales.[3][1]
