Phylodes narrowed to spikes, but still green (so not Acacia paradoxa). Bush to about 1.75m .

You seem to have had a couple of troubles with this group Luke? This one is A.genistifolia with the longer almost cylindrical phyllodes and paler flowers. It would also be very tall for A.ulicifolia which tends to hugs the ground more.

Yeah to be honest I've been a bit lacking in sleep lately so probably haven't been paying as much attention as it deserves, you're right, thanks for the correction.
