Acacia dealbata
silver wattle
Description
Acacia dealbata, commonly known as the Mimosa or Silver Wattle, is a fast-growing evergreen tree or shrub prized for its feathery, silver-gray foliage and fragrant, yellow flowers. The flowers appear in fluffy, ball-shaped clusters in late winter or early spring, creating a beautiful display and releasing a sweet fragrance. The leaves are finely divided, adding a delicate texture to the landscape. Acacia dealbata is relatively hardy and can tolerate a variety of soil conditions, but prefers full sun and well-drained soil. It is a great choice for adding a touch of elegance to any landscape. Pruning can help shape the tree and remove any dead or crossing branches.
