Acacia putcheHa is sometimes referred to as “prickly Moses in Western Australia because, although it has soft leaves, the branches have sharp spines. This acacia has a long flowering period in the spring and forms a hardy, drought-resistant, ground-hugging dense shrub 1 m to 1.5m in height and more in diameter. The flowers are deep yellow and quite large.
