Paraserianthes lophantha is a fast-growing, short-lived, evergreen tree originally from West Australia. It will grow up to 10 m tall and establishes quickly and displaces native plants. It will invade banks, coastal areas, shrubland, wasteland, roadsides, disturbed forest, riverbanks, gumland and short tussockland
The leaves are frond-like and are up to 30 cm long. They are twice divided along the midribs with 8-15 pairs of main subdivisions and 20-40 pairs of linear leaflets which are silky underneath.
During May to August, it develops >10 cm long, greenish-yellow bottlebrush-like flowers. The flowers are arranged in elongated clusters (4-8 cm long) borne singly or in pairs in the upper leaf forks.
After flowering elongated and flattened, seedpods that are up to 15cm long appear. They are first green but turn a brown or reddish-brown when mature. Each tree can produce large quantities of black, long-lived, foul-smelling seeds.
