An Acacia Galpinii tree

Suitable for bonsai

This fairly fast growing, hardy, deciduous thorn tree is one of the largest of the Acacias. It flowers before the leaves in September and October with showy, white, bottlebrush-type flowers that are purple before they open. Large woody pods follow the flowers. The bark is pale yellow and flaky.

The fine, feathery leaves fold up at night. It has large, black, hooked thorns that make it an ideal addition to a security hedge. It makes a perfect specimen plant and is majestic used in an avenue.

Like most Acacias it will attract a myriad of wildlife to the garden and is a butterfly host plant. Size 10 to 25m.
