I'd love to try growing this, would be much appreciated

No I don't remember them being dark. But I also have a terrible memory, so there's that

@withdrawl clinic sadly none sprouted for me, even with a heat mat to help along. I still have the container going just in case there is still hope Thanks to your generous spirit!!

Beautiful! Fingers crossed for more seeds getting around

And the winner is #10 @SayN. Congrats! Pm your details

Finishes tonight

@Northerner @niggles Beautiful pics guys, #1 & #2 respectively. I was hoping to have more interest, anyone care to link to this on the FB group?

Check out my acacia courtii seedling giveaway here, ending 8th October

Ok I have one only Acacia courtii seedling to give away. Post a sequential number, and a pic of an acacia you have grown, preferably from seed. I would prefer this little one goes to someone with some experience growing acacia, to know that it will be looked after. The seed was given away here by @communacacian for wattle day 2 years ago (holy shit time flies) Approx 25-30cm tall. Postage covered by me, not to WA or Tas due to plant quarantine restrictions. Australia only. The winner will be chosen by random number generator at about 8pm on Wednesday 7th October Pics when I get home from work

One of the identifying features that may help you differentiate from the many lookalikes (esp when not flowering) is the reddish leaf margin when held up to the light, which you can see really well in @rottenjonny's 3rd photo. Nicely done!

I've heard it was used as a tea for calming or relaxation by white early settlers, in the same way as hops, thus the common name hop bush. No personal experience though

Pmd as well, thanks
