Acacia spectabilis is a
beauty in all seasons. The best blooming period is in March, but
Acacia spectabilis will often have a few blossoms. During March the
weight of the blossoms will bow down the branches. The soft gray-green leaves make this small tree a compliment to any garden.
Expect Acacia spectabilis to grow to 12-15 feet. The pale bark will
provide an interesting silhouette against darker foliaged plants.
Ours went through winter temperatures below 20 F without damage.
Acacia spectabilis seems quite happy on a water budget.
