Re: Species id: possible weeping shurb maybe
I agree with that ID. A. pravissima is a native. Comes from North east Vic but has been widely planted as farm revegetation and in parks and gardens. Masses of golden flowers in spring. It is ,however, one of the short lived Acacias. Most only live 8-10 years.
