Dillwynia acicularis is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to New South Wales. It is an erect shrub with linear, grooved leaves and yellow flowers with red markings.
Dillwynia acicularis is an erect shrub that typically grows to a height of 1–3 m (3 ft 3 in – 9 ft 10 in) with hairy stems. The leaves are erect, narrow linear, sometimes triangular in cross-section, 10–35 mm (0.39–1.38 in) long with a longitudinal groove on the upper surface. The flowers are arranged in racemes on the ends of branchlets with leaves at the base, and hairy bracts and bracteoles about 1 mm (0.039 in) long. The sepals are 4–5 mm (0.16–0.20 in) long, and the standard petal is 7–9 mm (0.28–0.35 in) long and the keel is yellow with red markings. [2] [3]
