Acacia concurrens

Late Flowering Black Wattle. Tree to 10m with leaves (phyllodes) variable but to about 15cm long and 5cm wide, producing flowers in 8cm spikes in August, the colour varying from pale yellow to lemon. Similar to Acacia leiocalyx, but he part attaching the phyllode to the stem (pulvinus) is more than 5mm long, whereas the former is less than 5mm.
