Acacia gibsonii, commonly known as Gibson's wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to a restricted area of Western Australia. It is a low, spreading, somewhat straggly shrub with terete, reddish brown branchlets, oblong phyllodes, spikes of pale yellow flowers and tightly coiled, thinly leathery pods prominently rounded over the seeds.
This species of wattle is only known from the type location where it is reasonably common in red loam on gentle rocky slopes in shrubland dominated by Allocasuarina campestris, Allocasuarina globosa and Calothamnus quadrifidus, in the Coolgardie bioregion of Western Australia.
