Acacia aphylla Plant

REINDEER WATTLE - AUSTRALIAN NATIVE SHRUB

50mm Pot

Acacia aphylla, commonly known as reindeer wattle, leafless rock wattle, twisted desert wattle or live wire, is a species of Acacia which is endemic to an area around Perth in Western Australia.

This species is threatened and is rare in the wild. Its foliage is quite extraordinary and unique, giving the appearance that it will be prickly but in fact is soft to touch. Its twisted blue-grey stem is many-branching and leafless, with small yellow ball shaped flowers occurring late winter through to mid spring.

A leafless, erect, and widely branching shrub that grows to 0.9 to 3 metres in height and with a width of approximately 2 metres. Unlike most Acacia the phyllodes are absent for A. aphylla.

The thickened blue-green wiry stems have the ability to photosynthesize like leaves so giving the plant an evolutionary adaptation that greatly reduces the total surface area for water loss through transpiration.
