Blue-Leaf Wattle, Weeping Wattle

Overview

The Acacia saligna, commonly known as the Blue-Leaf or Weeping Wattle, is a fast-growing, evergreen shrub or small tree. It reaches approximately 20 to 30 feet in height, with a similar spread. Recognizable for its narrow, blue-green phyllodes (leaf-like structures) and vibrant golden-yellow flower clusters in spring, it creates a stunning contrast. Adapted to a wide range of soils, it’s ideal for erosion control and adding a splash of color to the landscape.
