The oval end leaflet does not fit any of the four local Swainsonas I know. Maybe because the plant is a seedling? Let it get bigger and take another photo?

The two probabilities are Swainsona sericea and S,. behriana the form suggests the former

I'm wondering if the oval/left leaf Betty just looks weird because of the angle the photo was taken at. I.e. the leaf isn't really that much of an oval in real life.

PS Betty - have you tested my new "Undo Suggestion" feature yet? Any feedback?

I'm sorry the terminal leaflet was pointing straight at the phone so is distorted. I was concentrating on getting the location right. There seems to be a phone tower in Garran that overrides my phone geolocation..
Now that Michael Mulvaney has identified the plant as S. sericea you can see in Nearby Sightings that I have been checking this patch for years. But now it has lost its 'uncommon' status.
