We've been longing to get Acacia cognata into the plant range for a while, and so we went one better and got this lovely large maroon-tinted version for extra garden appeal! Slender long grassy leaves, gentle cascading waterfall form, and that blush of burgundy. Despite its good looks this native is rugged and will have a go almost anywhere.
Acacia cognata 'Burgundy Cascade' - river wattle, bower wattle
APPEARANCE : Fast-growing medium-sized shrub with slender cascading leaves, mid-green tinted in burgundy-red. Small creamy fluffy wattle flowers but you're growing this one for the foliage.USE IN: Informal hedging, feature shrub, native gardens, screening, windbreaks.
LOCATION: Plant in any well-drained soil in full sun. Frost, drought and coastal tolerant, even growing in salty soils.
CARE: Mulch and water regularly until the plant is established, usually around 12 weeks, and protect from frost while young. Responds well to pruning if you need to - use the branches for decor indoors; apply a slow release native fertiliser afterwards to promote healthy growth.
