Acacia
cognata * River Wattle |
This small to middle
sized weeping tree grows to about 15 feet. Acacia cognata has creamy yellow
flowers in the late spring and early summer. River Wattle can tolerate
frost into the 20's and drought. But will do well with some summer
water. It is a great tree for making a screen or informal
hedge. I consider this a good weeping willow substitute. There
does seem to be a limit as to how long it can stand in soggy soil so
Acacia cognata should not be planted in a bog.
