Previously I had identified this Acacia incorrectly as cultriformis. Lucky we have people in the CBS who now there plants.
It is pravissima "Golden carpet". Repotted last year into a smaller pot.

Ken,
I bought it about 5 years ago from Gibbs nursery in albury. It was one of his old display plants.The pot was about 5 times the size of the current one.

The then owner had been there for about 40 years. I am not definite about the age but the other display plants I bought had been in the nursery close to the 40 years.
