^..i suspect that's actually a mimosa or relative ..i'll have a think about the pods....interesting..

except for around 40-50 confirmed acacias worldwide (most in australia), the remaining 1200 remain a mystery in terms of 'activity'..

acaciananarchy..you have a melaluca (paper-park) ..no alkaloids..but plenty of antiseptic oils..

& JourneyToJah..that could well be NMT, from your brief description of effects..

Is it safe to try extraction? I read that some strains may contain harmful alkaloids:shock:
If yes do i use the bark or leaves and twigs??
 
unknown plants, near the coast...
1 mimosa like, with huge leaves
2 anadenanthera like, with smaller flowers

So here we go attempt 3 to get the magical spirit molecule.

I think this is obtusfolia, if not it's certainly closer than all my other guesses :surprised, in any case Ive come to the experts, any help is greatly appreciated.

obtusfolia hopefully here

Thank you in advance.
:)
 
^Howyoulike..that may well be A. longifolia..the common name of obtusifolia is 'blunt leaf wattle'..
flowers would decide..

..the first is truly interesting..has large true compound leaves so not an acacia (nor mimosa)..will ponder..
the second seems to be an acacia..should be able to work that one out quicker..
 
^nen888..yeah was worried about that mate, :p so there's no way to tell them apart other than waiting for the flowering period? Would a few pics of the bark help?
 
Hey wondering if anyone could lend me a hand in identifying these 2 Acacias? The first photo is different to the next 2, sorry I didn't understand how to code my image in so I hit imageshack, Thanks. 😁


EDIT: The first photo i'm guessing is A. Maidenii currently fruiting lower and flowering higher on the tree. The second is flowering as well currently full bloom the flowers are much longer and leaves are alot broader. Can get full tree photos or clearer snaps during the day, thanks again. Also in SE Queensland.
 
Autocultivo your tree looks a lot like acacia concurrens, which does grow in SE QLD. i think the the flower rods are a little too long for maidenii, and the way they are arranged more abundantly at the end of the branch is a very concurrens trait..

anyone? ... concur? ;)
 
Ok cool, the first photo is definately different ( IMG_1404.JPG - Click to see more photos ) different tree, etc. the flowers are 4-6cm spiral pods flowering now (I also checked some of the seeds compared in one of the other acacia threads with A. Oxycedrus, these seeds being dark brown-black with red attatchments to the seed pod at the bottom only) I cant get on world wide wattle at this moment but thanks for that ill have a look.
 
Folks, I found a mimosa plant but would like to hear your opinion of what it is.. I guess it is a Mimosa Scabrella. The seedlings are very alike the pictures I find on the net. But the stems from the plant I found are a bit redish, and the pics from the net, the stems are more greenish.. also I don't remember the stems having hairs. The plant has no spikes.

thanks in advance

Morning Guys n Gals

I found a form of Acacia yesterday, and could really use a hand identifying. The issue was the wooded area was pretty dense, (pic attached) so I dont think the Acacia look as it would if it was standalone. (Sorry for lack of scientific terms :oops: )




Can get more pics if required, i was a bit shaky due to way too many spider web/face interactions.

Autocultivo : I see you're also in Aus, perhaps we can collaborate on info if its appropriate inaccordance with the attitude...?
