Acacia lasiocarpa prostrate 'Glow Wattle'

A prostrate low spreading groundcover Acacia. Small, fresh lime green foliage and masses of golden, fluffy flowers in Winter & Spring. A versatile plant that will withstand coastal conditions and drought. Great for hot dry spots in heavy to light soil conditions. Very decorative.

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

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

USES: Glow Wattle forms a thick mat that is useful as a rockery plant or for retaining walls. It can also be grown as a tub specimen.
