"Spreading shrub up to 2.5 m tall;" (PlantNET)
Indigofera australis has been used successfully for rehabilitation for many years. The collection of the seed is moderately simple although patches tend to be small and supply is often less than optimal. The seed stores well and so the taxon has been a commercial success in various respects.
All states except the Northern Territory. Well represented in Southeastern Australia and Queensland from the coastline to areas well inland.
