While these leaves are actually a shoot from the base of the trunk of the small tree behind it they do look like what is seen on a young plant, quite different to older leaves.
Not the best photo of Ackama paniculata however you can see the red central vein on the leaves. Also quite visible is the fact that they are pinnate compound leaves, about half way up on the right side of the trunk is a compound leaf with 3 leaflets, usually the compound leaves have 5 leaflets, as you can see on the left side of the trunk, opposite the afore mentioned trifoliate pinnae. The bark on this young specimen is also easy to see. Older trees are much more crevassed and corky.
For quite a number of years I walked past these trunks, not knowing what they were, I recognised the young plants, but not what they became. This is some new growth.
This is as close as I could get to the flowers, quite dense in places, just a long way up. They do belong to the Ackama paniculata, not the other tree appearing in the photo.
Ackama paniculata has quite a corky feeling trunk.
If you look closely you will see more flowers hiding behind a pinnae about one third of the way down on the right hand side, in this reduced image they only show as a whitish blobby thing.
