Western Silver Wattle
Family: Fabaceae
Subfamily: Mimosaceae
Characteristics: Medium shrub to 4 m
Seed per packet: 15

A medium-sized shrub with grey-green ferny foliage which is an attractive contrast the the profusion of bright yellow flowers that occur in spring.

The Western Silver Wattle is one of a small number of acacia with true leaves rather than phyllodes.
Native to Central New South Wales and Southeast Queensland.
Prefers medium to heavy soils in an open sunny position.
For best results, sow the seeds in spring or early summer. Sowings in autumn and winter may result in slow germination, weaker seedlings, or germination failure.
- soak in water for 24-48 hours.
- Next, soak seeds in near boiling water overnight to help soften the tough exterior and improve germination.
- Sow the seeds to a depth equal to the seed's width.
Germination: Typically occurs within two weeks.
Please note:
- Please do not be too hasty to discard seeds that do not germinate; seeds will often lay dormant until the conditions are similar to their natural germination requirements.
- As with all seeds, they must have adequate water to germinate, keep them moist but not too wet.
- These growth notes are provided as guidance only and do not guarantee successful germination.
- The customer should do their due diligence that they are suited to their region.
