The plant has smooth stems and its leaves are arranged in pairs with 11-29 leaflets. Its pea-like flowers grow in clusters and bloom in November and December. The fruit of this plant is an elliptic-shaped pod. It was first described in 1803 and has since been found in different habitats in New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland, including open forests, woodlands, heathland, and grassland. The specific epithet, galegifolia, refers to its resemblance to the northern hemisphere plant galega.
