The leaves evergreen, linear shaped, sort of curved (sickle-shaped), 1 1/2" long, less than an 1/8" wide light green color. Leaves are really phyllodes (modified petioles), take a look at the veination pattern which is typical of most all these acacias.
Small light yellow flowers appear clusters in pairs along the stems in spring.
Small thin pods, look like brown versions of the leaves with small constrictions around the few seeds inside. Have not seen them.
Thin wispy stems, light brown with very small green to brown rounded buds.

Misidentification:
Acacia boormanii maybe, which is not really soft and weepy but more upright, and shorter leaves. You can see both side by side at 3536 Flora Drive (Both are gone)
