Acacia everistii is a sparingly branched Australian wattle shrub, up to about 3 m tall, native to south-eastern Queensland, with silvery green phyllodes and yellow flower heads in late winter and spring. It is uncommon in the wild and rarely grown, so care advice is drawn mainly from general wattle cultivation.
