Box-leaf Wattle

Aptly named for its small, neat leaves that resemble a box hedge, this attractive upright shrub grows around 1.5 to 3 meters tall. It becomes completely smothered in deep golden-yellow flower balls from mid-winter to summer, putting on a highly reliable seasonal show. It is incredibly resilient to drought, poor soils, and moderate frost, making it ideal for low-maintenance native gardens.
