Acacia daweana, Dawe's wattle, is a low, spreading wattle shrub from the Pilbara of north-west Western Australia, growing on rocky rises and drainage lines. It is a rarely cultivated species, so care rests on mimicking its hot, dry, free-draining native conditions.
Acacia daweana, commonly known as Dawe's wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the north-west of Western Australia. It is a low, spreading shrub with grey bark, narrowly elliptic phyllodes, spikes of light golden yellow flowers and narrowly oblong pods constricted between and raised over the seeds.
Dawe's wattle is only known from the Pilbara region of north-western Western Australia, where it grows in rocky rises and along drainage lines among spinifex in the Hamersley Range and in Karijini National Park.
