hey guys, i was wandering around a small reserve today and identified three distinct acacia variants.
I believe they could all be Acuminatas due to their geolocation (York, W.A), due to them displaying a curve/hook on the end of phyllode, and due to the fact that they all are developing or showing rod-shaped flowers.
The problem is I really can't tell which is which subspecies...please help.
Specimen 1:
My guess is Acacia Acuminata Typical Variant (though has very long phyllodes).
Specimen 2:
My guess is Acacia Acuminata Typical Variant also but some differed version. Does also suit Small Seed Variant but is way out of habitat.
Specimen 3:
I don't really have a clue...I've never seen a narrow phyllode in person, so can't tell how narrow they get. Looks like a Burkitti but again is way out of habitat. Though this plant and one neighbor were the only ones of this species for kms, and were the only acacias around flowering.
