There are a lot of Acacias... I can see yours has nectaries all along the leaf rachis. If it's a frequent non-native perhaps someone will recognise it otherwise a quick search of relevant plant sales websites for what Acacias are getting sold and planted might be illuminating in terms of candidates to look at, as perhaps only a narrow range will actually being traded. Otherwise you'd need to submit them to an Acacia group if there is one. At any rate, usually clearer photos of all aspects with ruler in the picture including mature fruits is advisable but I see your photos seem to be old ones.

It may be useful to say that the best website I've seen for Acacias is http://worldwidewattle.com/imagegallery where you can choose a species to get photos and illustrations and can click View Description at the side.

A problem though is that there are quite a few genera (non-Acacia) that look like Acacia, making finding it hard if it's not a sufficiently well-known one. So let's hope someone recognises it !
