Western Silver Wattle

Growing to a height of 1.5 to 3 meters, this hardy shrub is noted for its bluish-grey, narrow foliage and arching habit. In spring, it is laden with long, showy sprays of bright golden-yellow flower balls that attract a myriad of native bees and insects. It is exceptionally drought-hardy and thrives in hot, sunny spots with well-drained, heavier soils.
