20 Acacia robusta (Splendid Thorn - Robust Acacia) Seeds

Acacia robusta Seed

Common Names: Splendid Thorn - Robust Acacia

Acacia robusta or Splendid Acacia forms a medium to large tree, up to 25m in height. It is a deciduous thorn tree and has a very robust looking form. The branches grow upright, unlike most other Acacias and are thick resulting in a beautiful flat crown. The Splendid Acacia has small, dark green leaves and pale yellow puff ball flowers. The flowers form along the branches in a spectacular display and they emit a sweet distinctive Acacia scent during early spring. The thorns are up to 5cm long and are straight and white in color. During summer Acacia robusta forms attractive sickle-shaped seed pods. It has brown to black bark which is very rough with longitudinal grooves in it.
Splendid Acacia is a rather widespread tree in the Northern Gauteng area as it prefers a warmer climate, but is fairly frost resistant once established. It is a rapid grower. Easily confused with Acacia karroo but when in bloom is instantly recognizable and unique.
