Ruth, this one interests me. I am in town tomorrow. Can you advise me exactly where it is? I might have time to collect a specimen.

Corner of Kitchener and Birdwood Streets. If you turn off Kitchener into Birdwood it is 10-20 meters on the right. There is another wattle beside it - they sort of intermingle. Both were probably planted decades ago as the original owners still own the property. The CNM gives a good location. Difficult place to park due to the intersection.

I think I replied to it above.

Ruth, I collected a specimen of this tree and it is Acacia floribunda. However, the two photographs below the main photograph are not of this species, Any chance you have mixed these photos up?

Yes I suppose I could have. Perhaps I should just delete the sighting altogether.

No worries Ruth - I will delete the non floribunda photos
