Acacia ausfeldii
Also called Whipstick Cinnamon Wattle
Ausfeld's wattle is an erect or spreading shrub from south-eastern Australia, growing 2 to 4 m tall with narrow phyllodes and bright yellow flower heads from August to October. It is a native wattle best grown in full sun with good drainage, and it is not a commonly grown houseplant.
Acacia ausfeldii, commonly known as Ausfeld's wattle or whipstick cinnamon wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to south-eastern Australia. It is an erect or spreading shrub with narrowly elliptic, linear or lance-shaped phyllodes with the narrower end towards the base, spherical heads of bright yellow flowers arranged in axils, and straight, firmly papery pods up to 100 mm (3.9 in) long.
Ausfeld's wattle grows in alluvial gullies on flats and low hills between Mudgee, Ulan and Gulgong in New South Wales, and in dry forest and mallee between the Inglewood-Nagambie areas and Torrumbarry in Victoria.
