    Looks like Jersey Cudweed to me.

    No definitely not fleabane - more likely a weedy Myosotis

    I think this is Gamochaeta coarctata or something very similar.

    Hi Alicia, the first two photo's are Pseudognaphalium luteoalbum I think. see page http://www.nzpcn.org.nz/flora_details.aspx?ID=2228 The third photo looks to be something else which I not familiar with. Cheers Matt

    Thanks everyone!
    The first two i've concluded as Pseudognaphalium luteoalbum (Jersey cudweed).
    Third photo as Camochaeta coarctata.

    Correct - the first two are Pseudognaphalium luteoalbum - the race that was described by Achille Richard in the 1830's as a New Zealand endemic using the name Gnaphalium luteoalbum var. incanum. It is indigenous but a weedy plant. The other is indeed Gamochaeta coarctata - a naturalized northern hemisphere species
