I can't be sure that Acacia decurrens may also be a parent

The colour of the leaves is actually a bit more silvery green than the photograph suggests. We tackled a lot of Cootamundra wattles in the area but I haven't seen A. decurrens.
Steve, I think we forgot to frill it yesterday...

Actually, when you download with the image editor the image shows in the correct direction.

Indeed it will, flipping it a full rotation left or right will correct the direction of the image (it’s what I’ve done).
