1835 Ross's Hobart Town Almanack & Van Diemen's Land Ann. 68 Aster argophyllus. Musk tree... This beautiful shrub, peculiar to Van Diemen's land, is already common in our gardens and shrubberies about Hobart-town.

1848 Mrs. Perry Let. in G. Goodman Church in Victoria (1892) 71 Also there is some pretty underwood, a good deal of the musk-tree—which is very different from our musk-plant, growing quite into a shrub and having a leaf like the laurel in shape.

1866 J. Lindley & T. Moore Treasury Bot. I. 479/1 The silver-leaved Musk tree, E[urybia] argophylla, is a Tasmanian plant, attaining a height of twenty to twenty-five feet.

1880 J. Bonwick Resources Queensland 82 The Musk-tree, Marlea, though of bright yellow wood, is black at the centre.

1965 Austral. Encycl. VI. 396/1 Musk daisy-bush or musk tree (O. argophylla) is typical of fern-gully country in Tasmania, Victoria and south-eastern New South Wales... The large elliptic leaves are silvered beneath and give out a musky aroma when crushed. The timber also has a pleasant fragrance.
