Acacia handonis
Also called Percy Grant Wattle
Acacia handonis, commonly known as Hando's wattle or Percy Grant wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to Queensland, Australia. It is a resinous shrub with crowded, erect phyllodes, spherical heads of bright yellow flowers and narrowly oblong pods.
Hando's wattle is extremely rare, known only from the Barakula area north of Chinchilla in Queensland where it grows in undulating country, often on stony ridges in lateritic soils with grey sand or clayey silt with ironstone gravel in Eucalyptus woodland and open forest. In 1994 the total population was estimated to be 10,080 individual plants where 4,200 are mature and the remainder are juveniles. They were distributed over three separate stands with a large variation in the density of plants. None of the plants are found in conservation areas.
