Pretty Wattle

Acacia decora
Family: MIMOSACEAE
In my article about this plant posted on August 19, I mentioned my plan to coppice one of these wattles as an experiment, to see whether I can turn it into a dense shrub rather than the leggy bush I showed you then.




I was a bit afraid that I had cut it back too harshly, but it’s looking good so far!

I wonder how it is going now?

Hi Sal.
It flowered beautifully this year. What a pity I was away for most of it!
