Acacia trachyphloia
Also called Bodalla Wattle
Acacia trachyphloia is a small tree from the south coast and tablelands of New South Wales, grown for its golden spring flowers and rough bark. It does best in a sunny spot with moist but well-drained soil, as it naturally grows beside streams.
Acacia trachyphloia is a tree native to southeastern Australia. Common names include Bodalla wattle and golden feather wattle. The specific epithet trachyphloia refers to the rough bark.
It grows from 4 to 18 metres tall, and is found beside streams and other moist areas between Lake Conjola and Bodalla in the south coast region and nearby tablelands of New South Wales. A number of different eucalyptus trees are found nearby. As with many of the acacias, it forms attractive yellow flowers between July and October.
