Acacia decurrens, commonly known as black wattle or early green wattle, is a perennial tree or shrub native to eastern New South Wales, including Sydney, the Greater Blue Mountains Area, the Hunter Region, and south west to the Australian Capital Territory. It grows to a height of 2–15 m (7–50 ft) and it flowers from July to September.

Cultivated throughout Australia and in many other countries, Acacia decurrens has naturalised in most Australian states and in Africa, the Americas, Europe, New Zealand and the Pacific, the Indian Ocean area, and Japan.

Mimosa flower extracts can help diminish the appearance of skin blemishes and wrinkles, stimulate collagen production, delay early signs of ageing and exfoliate dead skin cells. Loaded with anti-microbial, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, mimosa has healing powers that help cure burns and scars.
