It thrives in hot arid zones, at altitudes ranging from 0 - 500 m. It is adaptable to a wide range of rainfall levels, from 60 - 650 mm.
The common name for Acacia bivenosa is Two-veined acacia.
Acacia bivenosa, also known as two-veined acacia, is a moderately fast-growing shrub that typically reaches a height of 1.5-2.5 meters. It is commonly found in the hot arid zones of northwestern Australia and is well-suited for stabilizing sandy soils and providing low shelter. The wood of Acacia bivenosa is pale and can be used as fuel, while the plant itself has low palatability to livestock.

Additional Information: - Distribution: Acacia bivenosa is primarily found in the hot arid zones of northwestern Australia, at altitudes ranging from 0 - 500 m. - Habitat: It grows in a variety of locations but is most commonly found in well-drained situations on neutral to alkaline, less fertile soils. - Growth Characteristics: Acacia bivenosa is a moderately fast-growing, spreading shrub that typically reaches a height of 1.5 - 2.5 m, occasionally reaching 4 m, with a spread of 6 m. - Climate Requirements: It thrives in hot arid climates with rainfall ranging from 60 - 650 mm. - Stock Feed and Palatability: Acacia bivenosa has low palatability to both cattle and sheep as a stock feed. - Wood Characteristics: The wood of Acacia bivenosa is pale, sometimes with a core of dark brown heartwood. It is moderately dense and can be used as fuel. - Potential Uses: The main potential for Acacia bivenosa lies in sand stabilization, soil protection, and low shelter. It has the ability to coppice well.
Well drained situations on neutral to alkaline, less fertile soils.
A moderately fast growing, spreading shrub 1.5 - 2.5 m tall, occasionally attaining 4 m with a 6 m spread. It is widely occurring in the hot arid zones of north western Australia, at altitudes ranging from 0 - 500 m and rainfall from 60 - 650 mm. Acacia bivenosa grows in a variety of locations, but is most often found in well drained situations on neutral to alkaline, less fertile soils, and has potential for stabilising sandy soils. As a stock feed it appears to have a low palatability to both cattle and sheep. The wood is pale, sometimes with a core of dark brown heartwood, moderately dense and should make a useful fuel. The main potential for Acacia bivenosa seems to be for sand stabilisation, soil protection and low shelter. Plants coppice well.
