The habitat of Acacia argyrophylla ‘Silver Mulga’ is typically rocky hillsides, open woodlands, and mallee scrub. It is native to parts of South Australia, especially the Flinders Ranges, northern Mount Lofty Ranges, and the Eyre Peninsula, where it grows in well-drained, often rocky or sandy soils, usually in semi-arid environments.
Kuranga respectfully acknowledges the traditional owners, the Wurundjeri people, as the custodians of this land. We pay respect to all Aboriginal community Elders, past and present, who have resided in the area and have been an integral part of the history of the region.
