Acacia lapidosa, the Mount Magnet rock wattle, is a rare shrub endemic to a small area near Mount Magnet in inland Western Australia. It is seldom grown and is best suited to dry, free-draining, poor soils like its native habitat.
Acacia lapidosa, commonly known as Mount Magnet rock wattle, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to a small area near Mount Magnet in the inland of Western Australia. It is an erect, inverted conical or rounded, more or less twisted shrub with many branches, narrowly linear phyllodes, and narrowly oblong to broadly linear pods rounded over the seeds.
Mount Magnet rock wattle grows in poor soils derived from igneous rocks, on ridges and plains in open shrubland, with a range of other wattles.
