So here we go attempt 3 to get the magical spirit molecule. I think this is obtusfolia, if not it's certainly closer than all my other guesses  , in any case Ive come to the experts, any help is greatly appreciated. obtusfolia hopefully hereThank you in advance.

^Howyoulike..that may well be A. longifolia..the common name of obtusifolia is 'blunt leaf wattle'.. flowers would decide.. iracema wrote:unknown plants, near the coast...
1 mimosa like, with huge leaves
2 anadenanthera like, with smaller flowers ..the first is truly interesting..has large true compound leaves so not an acacia (nor mimosa)..will ponder.. the second seems to be an acacia..should be able to work that one out quicker..

^nen888..yeah was worried about that mate,  so there's no way to tell them apart other than waiting for the flowering period? Would a few pics of the bark help?
|
|
|
^..don't worry..there are very active strains of longifolia..often, i suspect, mis-identified as obtusifolia..
if it flowers in winter and they are yellow, it's longifolia..

well i guess there's no harm in taking 100grams and trying a little extraction.
Thanks for the help mate

Autocultivo your tree looks a lot like acacia concurrens, which does grow in SE QLD. i think the the flower rods are a little too long for maidenii, and the way they are arranged more abundantly at the end of the branch is a very concurrens trait.. anyone? ... concur?

Ok cool, the first photo is definately different ( http://imageshack.us/pho...images/811/img1404r.jpg/ ) different tree, etc. the flowers are 4-6cm spiral pods flowering now (I also checked some of the seeds compared in one of the other acacia threads with A. Oxycedrus, these seeds being dark brown-black with red attatchments to the seed pod at the bottom only) I cant get on world wide wattle at this moment but thanks for that ill have a look.

Folks, I found a mimosa plant but would like to hear your opinion of what it is.. I guess it is a Mimosa Scabrella. The seedlings are very alike the pictures I find on the net. But the stems from the plant I found are a bit redish, and the pics from the net, the stems are more greenish.. also I don't remember the stems having hairs. The plant has no spikes. thanks in advance kiang attached the following image(s):  DSC-0105.jpg (59kb) downloaded 1,180 time(s). DSC-0106.jpg (77kb) downloaded 1,183 time(s).

Morning Guys n Gals I found a form of Acacia yesterday, and could really use a hand identifying. The issue was the wooded area was pretty dense, (pic attached) so I dont think the Acacia look as it would if it was standalone. (Sorry for lack of scientific terms  ) http://imgur.com/a581hWohttp://imgur.com/Uk09bQShttp://imgur.com/TFX7zClCan get more pics if required, i was a bit shaky due to way too many spider web/face interactions.

|
|

Edit: will get better snaps in a few hours

Edit: will get better snaps in a few hours If youre from southeast Aus it's highly likely to be Acacia Obtusifolia (or Longfolia, also containing trace amounts of DMT). Do you have any flowers to help identify it? Everything said by this profile is fictional and not to be taken as fact.

Nope not in flower dosen't seem to be starting to bud, be a bit early in the year for that. (if obtuse rite) phylodes are dark green, irregular edges, red spots up them and smells sort of like melted ice cream container on the burn test
|
|
|
its really hard to tell from those pictures though it does look like you may have obtusifolia. Are the phyllodes leathery? do they sometimes slightly twist irregularly and do they have red resinous edges? better pics are needed for proper identification.. obtusifolia also has slightly blunt and rounded tips. the fact that it is not flowering at the moment is a good sign.

Yeah I got some more photos now. They are leathery and they have red blotches down the sides, not as prevalent as some of the ones I've seen around here Autocultivo attached the following image(s): IMG_1513.JPG (557kb) downloaded 121 time(s).
