Acacia cognata 'Lime Magik'

Acacia cognata 'Lime Magik'
This is a really magical and graceful Wattle. The soft lime green foliage is pendulous like a weeping willow. It is a frost hardy shrub growing to about 4 metres . The species is native to Victoria and New South Wales and this cultivar was developed in Victoria. Flowers are produced in Spring and are pale yellow.
2017 update: I don't grow this but it is available from specialist native plant nurseries.
