  • Description

  • Notes

This is one of the showiest Acacias for western gardens. It usually grows to 15' in height, with a compact, dense habit; it is one of the first plants to flower, blooming heavily in late winter. It has soft textured leaves that are blue gray. It is very drought tolerant and originates from Southeastern Australia.
