DescriptionThe shrub or tree has an erect to bushy habit and typically grows to a height of {{cvt|2|to|10|m}} and has lightly fissured brown bark. It has narrowly elliptic to oblanceolate shaped reddish to grey-green leathery phyllodes that have a length of {{cvt|5|to|20|cm}} and a width of {{cvt|8|to|25|mm}}. The juvenile foliage is pinnate and can persist on older plants. It blooms between July and November producing inflorescences with pale to bright yellow flowers.[2] TaxonomyThe species was first formally described by the botanist Allan Cunningham in 1825 in the work On the Botany of the Blue Mountains. Geographical Memoirs on New South Wales. The only synonym is Racosperma rubidum. It is also often confused with Acacia amoena[3] DistributionIt is found in southwestern parts of Queensland, western New South Wales and Victoria on the tablelands of the Great Dividing Range. It is often a part of open woodland or dry sclerophyll forest communities and grows on rocky hilltops and slopes in rocky soils[2] an in alluvial soils along rivers and creeks. The bulk of the population is found between the Black Range in northeast Victoria in the south up to near Stanthorpe in south-eastern Queensland.[5] CultivationThe shrub is sold commercially in tubestock or in seed form. It is noted as a good pioneer species[1] being fast growing, hardy, cold tolerant and beneficial as a nitrogen fixing plant. It can grow nutrient poor, shallow, skeletal, high altitude soils and plays a valuable role in catchment protection within its native range.[4] It prefers a sunny position, requires little maintenance, is drought tolerant and can tolerate temporary inundations.[1] See alsoList of Acacia speciesReferences1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://plantsandlandscapes.com.au/prov_site/Acacia_rubida|title=Acacia rubida red stemmed wattle, red leaved wattle|accessdate=2 March 2019|publisher=Provicial Plants and Landscapes}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q9568796}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/NSWfl.pl?page=nswfl&lvl=sp&name=Acacia~rubida|title=Acacia rubida A.Cunn.|accessdate=1 March 2019|work=PlantNet|publisher=Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://bie.ala.org.au/species/http://id.biodiversity.org.au/node/apni/2906822#names|title=Acacia rubida A.Cunn.
