It is frost resistant down to -6°C and drought resistant, but needs at least 550 mm of rainfall (Werner et al., 2010).

Distinguished by its phyllodes with prominent anastomosing nerves, smooth margins, conspicuous basal gland and commonly lemon-yellow spicate inflorescence. Initially, it comprised a group of plant species native to Africa and Australasia, but is has now been limited to contain only the Australasian species.
