About

Acacia claviseta, also known as the club-tipped whorled wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to north-western Australia. It is an erect, slightly sticky shrub with many branches, linear phyllodes in whorls of 9 to 16, heads of golden yellow flowers, and oblong to narrowly oblong pods.

Where it grows

Club-tipped whorled wattle is native to an area in the Northern Territory and the eastern Kimberley region of Western Australia. It is found in a few scattered places south of Kununurra on Bedford Downs Station, Osmond Range and around Pompeys Pillar to the north of Warmun in Western Australia with its range extending east to scattered populations in the Keep River National Park in the Northern Territory around 100 km (62 mi) to the north east. It mostly grows on scree slopes, sand flats, sandstone ridges and sandy lenses among sandstone boulders in scrubland communities.
