Acacia or Melaleuca?

Recommended Posts

Not sure, although I'm sure it is obvious to those in the know.

If not acacias what are they, and if they are which ones?

Looks like acacia going by the seed pods.

Where is the plant located?

So there are two different types(?) there, one with the curly/spiral pods, and the other more traditional I suppose. They are in SE QLD.

So longifolia is one. Cheers :)

I think I have at least another species(?) on the property as well.

Definitely looks like A. longifolia to me as well. When cared for it can grow really well at least as far south as Adelaide and I imagine further.

All Melalucas have papery bark.

All of them :)
