I assume you mean the second and third trees? I had one tree in a first post, and a second and third tree in a second post. The second tree was always an uncertainty to me, and I think you are probably spot on with the third. I just compared it to the Floribunda ID image, and the measurements seem to be about right. Flowers June-September, so I guess I will start to see those flowers at the end of the month.

The first post though - do we have Maidenii?

It are pages like this one here: http://keyserver.lucidce...ml/Acacia_floribunda.htm which cause me endless confusion when trying to identify the trees I have access to. I swear the photos on this page look an awful lot like the first tree I have (which is why I thought the common tree in my area might be Floribunda for a while. I still wonder...)

Hahaha so I think it's important that I post this.. It's taken me years now but I can safely say I can identify these tricky guys pretty well.. Even with training, help, experience and added up hours of research that I couldnt fathom counting, I still make mistakes.. I only just found the only true way to identify is like a persistent year round sort of check up. for most of you nobody will show you so if ur like me and have to figure this out the hard way and you aren't willing to devote s solid chunk of time and persist with determination then u may as well give up now I'm sorry to say. This is a beautiful world with different gateways. This gateway requires a personal relationship with a beautiful species. My only tips are most things you find online will confuse the shit of you when it comes to cacias. You want an easy route find another source. You want to enter the labyrinth look for the founders the discoverers and the pioneers of this plant. Look outside the box and pickup a damn book!! follow your heart and your instincts I found that my instincts have been 90% more accurate than some picture and some bro knowledge. Some of the tricky ones need to be looked at before during and after both fruiting and flowering and or both bark phyllo de structure glands hair stem everything needs to be considered. Hahah I'm not discouraging I'm only making you aware of the challenge In hopes more will take it and not give up and hopefully someday this bird might be the next johnny Appleseed and there will be apples abundant for all after all there is no harm in growing or looking at these lovely specimens. Remember This is year round work. So Good luck! And I think so long for a while.. I think many might come to find that happiness is a journey not a destination

yeah, I had figured that that would be the case. I've been watching these trees for about a month now, watching the spike buds slowly getting longer. I expect to see flowers around the beginning of June... and I intend on continuing to explore the area, and seeing if I can identify other variations out there to contrast against.

There is actually a handy local government guide to native trees which indicates general locations of various types of Wattles. So I plan on heading out to each location and seeing if I can find an example of each Obtusifolia, Maidenii, Floribunda, Implexa, Longifolia and Sophorae. Just got to find the time...

Hi guys,

Please can someone help with identification of the attached acacia?

If there is an image search or easy way I can identify without taking up anyone's time in this thread then I apologise in advance.

Kind regards.

acacia iteaphylla ^^

Many thanks acacian. I found a post of yours from 2012 stating you managed crystal and some goo which is great news for me. Couldn't find much info of alkaloid percentage on the wiki so hope to help full in those blanks once I've practised some more extractions on the bark I have.

This find means I can learn new skills in sensible harvesting techniques

Many thanks once again.

I did indeed although I am fairly certain it was another compound... crystallised much the same as dmt did surprisingly ..in soft circular formations which were waxy upon scraping. smell was distinctively different (quite unpleasant actually) and the taste of the vapor was so horrid I never got the chance to hold it in long enough to give it a chance to do its thing.. whatever its thing was. would be very interested to see other's results on it though and I have since worked with extracts that were quite bitter and also had dmt present so who knows maybe you'll have some luck with it.. certainly hope you do! I used phyllodes/twigs on the test I did I'll be interested to see what the bark yields..

and in regards to sensible harvest techniques theres no real need to take trunk bark.. phyllodes and twigs of active trees will usually contain alkaloids too (twigs in equal amounts and possibly "cleaner" content.. phyllodes often a little lower content and possibly varying in alkaloid profile but still well worth using)

Hi there

Just wondering if you could help me identify this! I am thinking it could be a dealbata or possibly it's a Albizia!

Thank you for your time.

JSTAR, your tree is Paraserianthes lophantha or "Cape Leeuwin Wattle".. not an acacia i'm afraid but a beautiful plant none the less which hasnt been tested for alkaloids so worthy of investigation

Thank you Acacian your knowledge is very impressive! Swim will check it out, what are your thoughts on the age of the plant, if it is young will there less likely be a good result?

Didn't know where to post this question, so I chose to post it here.

Can anyone give me a list of acacias which grow in continental climates (cold winters, hot summer)? I've ran upon two trees, one is definitely from Leguminosae family, and other is similar to Robinia pseudoacacia, but is thornless and had upright purple flowers.

I'll also try to get some photos tomorrow.

Thanks in advance.

Some that I may have come across on a walk recently in West Australia
I only managed to narrow it down to 25 or so names on that site hah

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance for this,

I've found a small bunch of trees in East Australia which I think may be Acacia. Please can you help identify? Nevertheless, it was a really nice walk of they turn out to be another species entirely

First 4 not an acacia, the last 2 look like acacia but not too sure what they are.

Acacia yes but cant tell which one from those pics sorry.

cheers Dream

No stress, many thanks for replying

Howdy!
I went for a little stroll today, actually looking for mushrooms and stumbled across this acacia.
It's just starting to go into flower so hopefully someone can help ID it,
Thanks in advance

Im not too sure looks like floribunda or longissima, great photos! Thats the standard needed for a good ID, and maybe a close up where the phyllode meets the stem too.
