Hi, I want to say this is a brachychiton of some kind but not sure where you are located so no idea about species, maybe bidwillii. Also I cannot see the flower from the right angle.

Those are the same photos! Hahaha...

I am going to take a guess at b.bidwillii - http://asgap.org.au/b-bidw.html

It's highly variable, but it more or less fits the bill. There may be a variety of brachychitons in that region.

hahaah i am a stupid cunt aye

Looks like it could be Lacebark - Brachychiton discolor - http://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/NSWfl.pl?page=nswfl&lvl=sp&name=Brachychiton~discolor

Lacebark occurs in drier types of rainforest - it has a really distinctive trunk with shallow vertical furrows.

There are at least 4 Brachychiton spp. in your region (possibly 5 or 6 depending on precisely how far from the coast you have been looking)...

Looks like Brachychiton bidwillii. They have no thickened or caudiciform trunk and is a smallish tree or shrublike. The flowers look right and the occurrence matches the distribution.

Are the leaves rough like sandpaper fig? or smooth like brachychiton.

Stem looks like ficus sp. ????

Native Hibiscus has palmate leaves, but I think you are on the money with brachychiton bidwillii

I will keep an eye out for it as I live on the Sunshine Coast too.
