Like most species of Acacia it has phyllodes rather than true leaves. The oblanceolate shaped thinly coriaceous phyllodes have a length of 4.5 to 6 cm (1.8 to 2.4 in) and a width of 13 to 16 mm (0.51 to 0.63 in) have one nerve per face and are sparesly covered with white hairs. When it blooms it produces simple inflorescences in group of four to seven along a raceme axes of 1.5 to 3 cm (0.59 to 1.18 in) with spherical flowerheads.[1]
