Acacia glaucoptera nana 'Clay Wattle'

Olive winged foliage and reddish new growth with yellow flowers in Spring. Grows well in sand or loam and will tolerate heavy clay soils.

POSITION: Prefers full sun to part shade and is suited to most soils that are well drained.

CARE: Once established Clay Wattle requires little maintenance. Benefits from annual tip prune. Occasional feeding with a slow release low phosphorous fertiliser is beneficial. Mulching around the base will help to conserve moisture.

USES: Clay Wattle is a good low feature plant. Excellent for hedging, giving great colour contrast in the garden.
