"Tree or sometimes shrub 3–10 m high. Bark normally rough and corky. Branchlets sometimes pendulous, brittle, sometimes pruinose, glabrous." (WorldWideWattle ver. 2)

"Grows in sandy and lateritic soils in flat or undulating country, and in heavier soils close to creeks, mostly in open woodland." (WorldWideWattle ver. 2)

We have observed Acacia hemignosta as a small upright tree around Mount Isa and between there and Cloncurry further east. It tends to grow in small groups however the seed can be collected efficiently, even more so if collection from some height can be achieved. The pods and seed are relatively large. The growing tips and small branches are remarkably brittle.
