Summary

Description

Acacia decurrens. Waterfall NSW Australia, July 2011.

PlantNET describes Acacia decurrens having "branchlets angled with winged ridges which are decurrent with the petioles".

I thought that I might be able to illustrate that feature with this photo, but I am not convinced. There is a ridge running along the horizontal branchlet. Does the ridge have wings? It is anvil-shaped in cross-section, so maybe. Trouble is, the petioles hold the leaf up, not down. Does this mean the branchlets are decurrent with the petioles? If so, I find it a funny way to describe what's going on.
