I took a picture of this small. leathery-leaved plant at Big Mush-a-Mush Lake, Lun Co, yesterday b/c the hairs on the leaves were so long. I didn't notice the flower(?) until I looked at the photos when I got home. The large leaf in the centre is 20mm long (click to enlarge):

It was growing on a steep sandy beach in a flat group as shown here:

The water level fluctuates little in this spring-fed lake. The plant would never be submerged.

Anyone know what it is?

Nancy
