This was also in the grove. A. Melanoxynon? That is the trunk of it in the background, it was around 50 feet tall. No flowers or seed pods so it's difficult to ID. Inconsistency is in my nature. The simple PHYLLODE tekI'm just waiting for these bloody plants to grow

I have a sneaking suspicion it could be, but the phyllode shape is tending me toward a. Frigescens It is a vey close cousin of melanoxylon, occuring only in sub alpine regions so i dont know how it found its way down to its location. Looks quite old and the area is prone to flooding, maybe came down the yarra at the oppertune time. Chances are extremely rare though. But those phyllodes man. Here is mela ror comparisons sake.

Tough one to call! There is a suspected a.frigescens near me but the veins are anastomising unlike that of melanoxylon. Maybe compare basal glands?

I am in Peru at the westend of the Amazon basin and this place is filled with acacias. I have no idea about acacia ID, so I was hoping someone here can help me with this one: white round flowers, smooth bark, long seedspods with ~20 small tearshaped seeds, no thorns... It is growing everywhere around here. Please say A. polyphylla Nicita attached the following image(s): DSCF5434.JPG (2,482kb) downloaded 239 time(s). DSCF5437.JPG (2,502kb) downloaded 239 time(s).

Seems spot on, thank you for the ID. Well at least the young seed pods are edible and add to the wild forage things I know here When I find more species in flower, I will post them too. Until then its back to cactus, aya and mushrooms

Found a magnificent specimen of A. Phlebophylla, it will be flowering in a month I will be sure to upload some pics of the flowers. The local council has planted a few in a reserve, I also spotted some Pycanthus and Implexa amongst them. It's good to see the phlebo's at least, being spread as much as possible. I will definitely be commandeering some seeds when the time comes for propagation. Inconsistency is in my nature. The simple PHYLLODE tekI'm just waiting for these bloody plants to grow

That looks more like obtuse to me but could be the conditions it was grown in. Phleb is a truly beautiful plant many now have had success with growing this in their garden. Their connection to the volcanic rock is amazing.

..a lot happens when away from the nex..thank you those who are onto it..
for now, Inner Paths post#844: the second two pictures are A. longissima, however the first is more like A. floribunda (longer spikes, slightly different phyllodes..the next post i'll go with longissima, based on spikes not as abundant..close up photos of phyllode plus eventual pods with seeds ends the doubt..
and the last picture does seem to be A. disparrima..my first impression was to say A. aulacocarpa, which A. disparrima was included in until c2000..
and thank you for your aware, sustainable, tree-friendly intention of just using phyllodes.. .

Hey just wanted to verify an ID on this Acacia, suspected A. floribunda growing in South-West Western Australia near pemberton. It was at a resort so it may have possibly been planted rather than natural. Sharps attached the following image(s): IMG_2545.JPG (4,100kb) downloaded 177 time(s). IMG_2546.JPG (3,718kb) downloaded 176 time(s). IMG_2559.JPG (2,042kb) downloaded 177 time(s).

Thank you very much nen, greatly appreciated. I keep stumbling across these in different conservation parks across SE QLD now that I know what I'm looking for. Majority are quite small but there has been at least a few mature trees too. I'll have to wait until flowering is over before I'd try my hand at seeing what's in the phyllodes. Might wait until some seed pods have shown up too just to confirm ID. Onwards and upwards nexians! "The love I've made is the shape of my space"

****EDIT *** Actually, this looks like just a flowering eucalyptus - The red nuts/pods had me suspicious, and further googling seems so. Hi ! I am new to the DMT world, but very excited about it. I have just returned to my house in West Australia after 3 years in the concrete of NYC (casually reading about DMT) and have been eager to look around the neighbourhood. I have a few plants around in neighbours gardens that look similar, but during the day i am reluctant to walk on their property for a closer look and to see if they match the images here. Can anyone confirm whether this is a plant of interest for me ? There are quite a few Acacia Acuminata lookalikes around, but here is a picture of one time. Your help is appreciated. removed images to save space

Unfortunately that is not a DMT containing plant. That is a Eucalypt sp. from the looks of it (sp. = species). Living in WA you will want to be looking for Acacia sp. particularly Acuminata.
