I think this is Prostanthera spinosa or spiny mint bush. I couldn't find it on the global list.

Nice sighting! Kinda similar to P. spinosa but separated by location. This is also a very range-restricted species so a good sighting

Thanks. Another plant not in my field guides. It was an interesting shrub and we saw it in a number of locations around Mt Arapiles.
