Acacia spectabilis, commonly known as Mudgee wattle, [3] is an erect or spreading shrub, endemic to Australia. [3]
It grows to between 1.5 and 4 metres high and has pinnate leaves. [3] The bright-yellow globular flowerheads appear in axillary racemes, mostly between July and November in its native range. [3] These are followed by thin leathery pods which are 4–17 cm long and 10–19 mm wide. [3]
The species occurs naturally in dry sclerophyll forest and heath in New South Wales and Queensland and is commonly cultivated. [3]
