User's notes

Single wattle growing along the track, just finished flowering. Keyed out to A. decora, but I'm not certain because the leaves are much more sickle-shaped than I'm used to.

I think A. decora looks okay, some of the ones I've seen around Canberra can have some bendiness to sickle-shaped leaves like this. Not really sure what other possibilities might be around you were considering?

I keyed it out and there wasn't really any option that seemed better than A. decora
