The spreading slender shrub typically grows to 0.4 to 4 metres (1 to 13 ft) in height with an erect to spreading nature usually with a slender to straggly habit.[1] It has smooth brown to grey-green often mottled bark, terete and glabrous branchlets and subsessile leaves that are 1 to 6.5 centimetres (0.4 to 2.6 in) long.[2] The rachis are 1 to 7.5 cm (0.39 to 2.95 in) in length and hold 2 to 11 pairs of pinnae that are 0.4 to 4 cm (0.16 to 1.57 in) in length with 4 to 21 pairs of pinnules. The pinnules usually have an oblong or oblanceolate shape and will tend to incurve as they dry and are 2.5 to 6 mm (0.098 to 0.236 in) in length and 0.8 to 1.8 mm (0.031 to 0.071 in) wide.[1]
