A coincidence this morning:
As an example of my own sometimes making mistakes by myself not doing enough careful checking,
even as I have skills and have experienced knowledge of this species;
as well as perhaps not experienced with this species while having experience with P. rubiginosum: @Tapirlord and yourself.
Even though we all have skills and plants' spp. identification experiences.

Thus this sighting identification corrected:
actually a flowering smalller plant than its full potential tree form;
with much more height–growth potential it has yet to realise,
identifies to _Pittosporum wingii_ !!!

Good humbling for us all – including us always take care more and more.

The reasoning available here – especially the distribution of hairiness compared with _Pittosporum rubiginosum_ :

I am now uploading my own many sightings of some of the _Pittosporum_ species of this wet tropics bio-region (NE. Qld) .

Yeah. Good morning!
And, please include written notes in to the NatureMapr sighting record,
of your sighting time actual in the field relevant thoughts.

Systematic notes have interest (not boring).
And as your NatureMapr time permits, please include your relevant thoughts (not holding thoughts back).

Evidences–based and first hand experiences based inferences and opinions –great!
Un-evidenced, made–up, guessed, assumed, or hyped up, opinions waste every bodies' time.
Thanks to us all here in NatureMapr there's very few, a tiny minority, of these here
(cf. bad, large minority proportion of baseless IDs and records in iNat).
Boldly i am emphasising, in this our nature loving systematic life–work, none of us can fall into guessing nor assuming nor hyping.
