Acacia acinacea is commonly known as Gold Dust Wattle. The delicate bright yellow balls of this wattle are made up from relatively few individual flowers (sometimes less than10)

Like most local wattles, pollen is dispersed in units of 16 individual grains. Honey bees are one of the major pollinators
