Acacia concurrens
Also called Curracabah
Acacia concurrens, known as curracabah or black wattle, is a single-stemmed shrub or tree native to eastern Australia, growing up to about 10 m with leathery phyllodes and pale yellow flower spikes. It is a hardy, drought-tolerant plant best suited to dry, warm climates with free-draining soil.
Acacia concurrens, commonly known as curracabah or black wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is a single-stemmed glabrous shrub or tree, with fissured bark, scurfy branchlets, very narrowly elliptic to narrowly elliptic, leathery phyllodes, spikes of pale yellow flowers and linear, semicircular, pods.
Curracabah is endemic to an area from south eastern Queensland to northern New South Wales in the south where it is common in coastal areas from around the Mooloolah River in Queensland down to the Hastings River in New South Wales. It grows on hillsides or plateaux in sandy or stony sandy loams, often over shale, as part of the understorey in Eucalyptus forest or woodland.
