Acacia flexifolia
Also called Small Winter Wattle
Acacia flexifolia, commonly known as bent-leaf wattle, bent-leaved wattle or small winter wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the east coast of Australia. It is a low-lying or spreading shrub with ascending to erect, linear to narrowly linear or lance-shaped phyllodes with the narrower end towards the base, spherical heads of pale yellow or lemon yellow flowers and narrowly linear, thinly leathery, curved pods.
Bent-leaf wattle is scattered along the inland slopes of the Great Dividing Range and adjacent plains from near Miles in Queensland through central western New South Wales to Wedderburn in Victoria where it usually grows in open forest, woodland or mallee scrub in shallow soil.
