Acacia ‘Lightwood’ Wattle

Acacia implexa

Hickory Wattle, White Wood
Acacia Lightwood is a vigorous, long-lived, fast growing native Australian Tree. It is one of the largest growing of the wattles, some trees reaching up to 15 meters, and bears pale creamy-yellow flowers in Summer.

Lightwood trees tolerate dryness, frost, and many soil conditions. Great for windbreaks, as a fodder plant, and for timber, which is often used for making furniture. Plant with Acacia Blackwoods, which flower in Winter, for year-round interest.
