I have quite a few species of wattles all covered in too many pods. I believe they have decided that after two drought years and finally some spring rain that they should reproduce before they die. They might be right.
I know that's a bit morose but my Banksia coccinea flowered well on the South Coast of NSW and I thought that was too weird and a harbinger of climate change.
Prune all the wattles though because they will look better in the long run.
