It’s very colourful when in flower. Pity it’s now considered a #weed in various parts of Australia. #acacia #oznative

It's listed as a weed in my council area in Melbourne too! Pity we didn't realise when we planted one a few years back. We do love it though. Such a pretty tree...

@kimberleyrolfe what a funny 😂 name. Does it cause that much of a problem that it’s considered a weed?? 🧐

@pixierose it’s an Australian native that is indigenous to a particular area near Cootamundra in New South Wales. It’s a very attractive plant when in full bloom! BUT outside it’s natural area it outcompetes other native plants...
