Description
Acacia saligna, commonly known as the Golden-Wreath Wattle, is a striking Western Australian native tree that makes a bold addition to Perth gardens. Its evergreen foliage forms a dense canopy, reaching up to 7 metres in height and spreading 5 metres wide. Known for its resilience, this wattle adapts well to a range of soil types, from heavy clay to light sandy soils, and thrives in full sun to part shade, making it a versatile choice for various landscapes.
In Early Spring (Djilba) through Late Spring (Kambarang), the Golden-Wreath Wattle bursts into vibrant yellow blooms, providing a stunning seasonal display. Once established, it is drought-hardy, requiring minimal water, and is a low-maintenance choice for Perth’s climate. Non-toxic to both humans and pets, this perennial is a safe and attractive option for larger native garden settings.
