Hmmmm it is very young, I tend to see you kurrajong with trifoliate leaves. Curious why you went there over Hardenbergia?

It looks very like the kurrajong saplings I’ve seen around my place and elsewhere. The leaves have that broader base section and are getting bigger towards the top. The immature hardenbergias I have seen usually start to have a sprawling habit rather than this one which seems more erect like a tree. Additionally kurrajong saplings often come up in more disturbed urban areas than hardenbergia.
