This is a natural hybrid of some description. However, hybrid ID is messy so Acacia sp may be a better ID.

Hey Ciaran - please see
Acacia baileyana x Acacia dealbata (Cootamundra Wattle x Silver Wattle (Hybrid))

It’s the same tree. So either you or drakes have it wrong. 😊

Actually you confirmed it so you must have changed your mind. 😊

I realise it’s really hard with hybrids and subspecies…

And the fact that drake’s was in bloom.

Yeah, the other set of photos are not as good also so that probably contributed. But both are some kind of hybrid, probably with A.baileyana given that the silver-grey colour has been retained. The low-land form of A.dealbata seems to be getting muddied by all this hybridisation in our region.

Seeing that it is on the CNM field map for AB - what to do?

Also, who curated the AB CNM field map? The field maps don’t seem to be updated in real time?

I'm not quite sure who set the current oundaries for the field maps. It's not in the capacity of my role so perhaps email admin?
