Acacia asepala is a small, multi-branched wattle shrub from south-western Western Australia, grown for its bright golden pompom flowers. It needs full sun and very well-drained soil, and tolerates dry conditions once established.
Acacia asepala is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to Western Australia. It is a diffuse, multi-branched shrub with reddish-brown branchlets, sharply-pointed, glabrous, needle-shaped phyllodes on short projections of the stems, spherical heads of bright, mid-golden yellow flowers, and narrowly oblong pods up to 40 mm (1.6 in) long.
This species of Acacia grows in low eucalypts woodland in loam or sandy loam in three disjunct populations, south-east of Marvel Loch, near Forrestania and in the Frank Hann National Park in the Avon Wheatbelt, Coolgardie and Mallee bioregions of Western Australia.
