Its leaves are reduced to scattered, erect but down-curved, often sickle-shaped phyllodes Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a sharply pointed black tip. The flowers are arranged in clusters of three to eight on a peduncle up to Шаблон:Cvt long, the rachis Шаблон:Cvt long, each flower on a thread-like pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long with spatula-shaped bracts about Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The sepals are Шаблон:Cvt long and joined at the base, the two upper lobes joined for most of their length and the lower three triangular. The standard is elliptic with a central notch, Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide and orange with a red base and a yellow centre, the wings Шаблон:Cvt long and dark crimson, and the keel Шаблон:Cvt long and dark crimson.
