It blooms between March and October producing creamy-white flowers. Often cultivated in open areas, wider verges, in parks and reserves and as a shelter wind-break or for erosion control. It is also known to be good for honey production. Nectar-eating birds and insects use it for food and habitat. The yellow tailed black cockatoo consumes the seeds of this species
