paradox Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 yeah Acacia longifolia (sydney golden wattle) by the looks of it. if it was found very close to the coast it could be Acacia sophorae (they are a very closely related species, the latter occurring near the coast on & near sand dunes etc. A. sophorae generally has a lower growing habit & shorter, wider, thicker phyllodes. to save confusion though i would say that it is indeed A. longifolia as you initially thought <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_smile.pngat first it looked as though the seed pods were highly twisted, which would not be consistent with longifolia, but then i realized that they only look twisted because they have cracked open, ejected their seeds & peeled back, making them look highly twisted.
