Acacia collegialis, southern rock wattle, is a spreading shrub or small tree from inland Western Australia, grown mainly for its golden flowers in arid-climate gardens. It needs full sun, very well drained soil and little water once established.
Acacia collegialis, also known as southern rock wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to inland Western Australia. It is a spreading shrub or tree with narrowly elliptic phyllodes, oblong to shortly cylindrical spikes of golden yellow flowers, and linear to narrowly oblong, thinly leathery to crust-like pods.
Southern rock wattle occurs from Coolgardie to Karonie about 100 km (62 mi) east of Kalgoorlie and south to near Norseman, where it grows in shallow sandy clay-loam in open tall shrubland or low woodland, in the Coolgardie and Murchison bioregions of inland Western Australia.
