This Australian native cultivar is characterized by its dense, pendulous branches that bear soft, lime-green to golden foliage throughout the year, making it a standout in any garden or landscape.
Features:
Foliage: The foliage of Acacia cognata 'Limelight' is its most distinctive feature, with small, narrow leaves that are typically lime-green when young, maturing to a deeper green with a hint of gold. The leaves are soft and slightly pendulous, giving the plant a flowing, weeping appearance.
Form: Grown as a standard, 'Limelight' is trained to have a single trunk with a rounded head of foliage at the top, creating a compact and structured silhouette.
Size: As a standard, the plant typically reaches a height of around 1.5 meters tall, with a spread of about 1 meter. This compact size makes it suitable for both garden beds and large containers.
Adaptability: It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil. It is relatively low-maintenance once established and is tolerant of dry conditions once its root system is established.
