QuestionHi!
I'm pretty sure this is a species of Linaria, but I'm not sure which. They were found growing wild in East Gippsland, Victoria, Australia.
Here are some photos:

I would really appreciate an assitance, even if it is only a redirect!
Thanks!
AnswerPeter,
This looks like Linaria canadensis - also called Old Field Toadflax. It is a native plant in N.America that thrives in disturbed areas. In other parts of the world it is considered an invasive exotic.
