English Name:Narrow-leaf Wattle, Variable Sallow Wattle seeds
Introduction:A genus of over 500 species scattered over the warmer regions of the world, but most abundant in Australia to where most of these species are endemic. Although the colour of the flower varies but little, there is great variety in habit and shape of leaf, and many have the delightful perfume of the florists’ “Mimosa” (A.dealbata). Fortunately, although some species are of considerable size (the heights given refer to the size attained in nature), they can be successfully and easily grown in pots. The species listed have been specially selected as being best suited for cultivation in this country, requiring little more than protection from frost, and perhaps hardy in the very mildest parts of the country. Try them – some of the most beautiful of greenhouse plants. Acacia seed germinates freely if placed in a cup of boiling water and allowed to stand 2 days before sowing.
Description:Widespread in cool forests in Tasmania and mainland Victoria is this graceful, spreading shrub. With long, very narrow, pointed leaves, it bears spreading, narrow catkins of rather lovely, primrose-coloured flowers with a strong, slightly acid scent. It should prove fairly hardy in all but the coldest parts of the country.
Classification: Hardy, Shrub
Price: £2.12 per packet
