Description and Uses
Acacia pachycarpa (Pindan wattle) is a
tropical
shrub from
Southern Australia . It is mainly grown for its
conservation crops
, which have a
medium shelf life. The crop is harvested by
total removing. It starts flowering after

40 years the
shrub can be totally removed as it reached its commercial and ecological goal.
Acacia pachycarpa has a lifespan of
50 years.
