Acacia Sigma® Weeping Wattle™*

An Aussie icon for any garden

 A small softly weeping shrub (1.5m x 1.5 – 1.8m) with aromatic foliage and bright yellow perfumed flowers in spring.  Grows in well drained clay or sandy soils, in temperate to sub tropical and semi arid climates.  Likes full sun or light shade, and withstands heavy frost.  Suitable for second line coastal planting.

Uses:  as a specimen, or for light hedging or mixed with other shrubs to create natural habitat.  The flowers attract butterflies, and pigeons forage for seed under plants during early summer.

Maintenance:  light pruning for shape if required.  No feeding or extra watering needed once established.

*Suitable for planting in home gardens. Landcare recommends local provenance species when planting into nature conservation areas.

 

Let this softly weeping shrub enhance a shady comer of your garden. And enjoy the visiting pigeons who relish the fallen seeds ... another way of providing Flora for Fauna in your landscape.
