Mutant! Sprouting stems with little leaves out of big single leaves

Actually this is typical behavior in wattles, where the bipinnate (compound) foliage are the true leaves common in young plants and the broad 'leaves' are the adult foliage compromised of modified stems (phyllodes)

@Tapirlord holy moly! I guess I've not been paying enough attention. Fascinating stuff!
