 == General Plant Info ==
 [[Acacia ulicifolia]], commonly know as "Prickly Moses", is a small to medium shrub which may reach 3 metres in height but is usually smaller. The name refers to the gorse (genus Ulex) like foliage. There are maritime (low, compact habit), slender phyllode and hairy phyllode variants.

 == Other uses ==
-It is a useful plant which is effective as an informal hedge where its prickly habit can deter access to particular areas and provide refuge for small birds. The plant is suited to a wide range of soil types provided they are reasonably well drained. A position in full sun or light shade is suitable and the species is tolerant of at least moderate frosts.
