Acacia dealbata/ Mimosa / Wattle

A medium sized to large evergreen tree that is loved for its yellow flowers in late winter and spring, as well as its fern-like leaves. The flowers are small, fragrant, fluffy balls. It is best grown in a sheltered location, somewhere sunny, well-drained and preferably in a mild area. Around Dublin, trees can grow to at least 4 metres in height. As this tree can grow extremely fast, we recommend trimming off the top / new growth for the first couple of years in order to develop a sturdy main trunk.

An ideal tree for creating evergreen screening and privacy. Best in well-drained soil and in sun to light shade.

Irish-grown plants, 150-170cm in a 5 to 7 litre pot.

Generally available in our Monkstown shop. Due to the size and weight of this plant, it can only be delivered in County Dublin.
