Acacia

Acacia (Wattle) is one of Australia’s most iconic native plants, ranging from small shrubs to large trees. With soft foliage and bright yellow flowers, it adds vibrant color to gardens, usually blooming in late winter and spring. Acacias attract bees, butterflies, and birds, making them perfect for wildlife-friendly gardens.

Acacias are fast growing, hardy and adaptable, thriving in a variety of environments, from coastal areas to arid inland regions. They prefer:
 Well-draining soil (sandy, loamy, or gravelly)
 Full sun to part shade
 Low water requirements once established
 Tolerance to drought and frost (variety-dependent)
