Acacia shuttleworthii is a low, compact shrub from the Wheatbelt of Western Australia, growing to about 0.25 to 0.5 m with small hairy phyllodes and cream-white flowers from October to December. It is a species of Acacia, not a common garden plant, so care information is limited.
Acacia shuttleworthii is a shrub of the genus Acacia and the subgenus Phyllodineae that is endemic to western Australia.
It is native to an area in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia where it is found on hills and breakaways growing in lateritic soils. It has a disjunct distribution from around Dandaragan in the north to around Gnowangerup in the south growing in gravelly clay and sandy soils as a part of Eucalyptus wandoo woodland communities.
