Possibly C. fimbriata or C. apostasioides. The latter rarely opens, and then only the year after fire.

With that high-set leaf that sticks out sideways from the lower flowers, and blunt, chunky flowers, it will be in the C. densa group I think.

We'll have to see what Matt says, I'm always a little funny about confirming midges off unopened flowers

I'm not overly familiar with Corunastylis spp. but I do feel my original assessment was incorrect. I think Eamonn is correct in his assessment. You can even see a red C. densa in the background.
