Description: English: Cedar wattle (Acacia elata), growing as a garden tree in Newport. I should have photographed it before the rain got to it and made the blossoms all daggy. It is a quite splendid tree with a pale blossom. And since I tend to think of wattles as flowering in the winter, a bit of a surprise for me, to encounter a summer flowering one.
