Plant of the Day

Saturday 19 March 2022

The evergreen tree Acacia dealbata (blue wattle, mimosa, silver wattle) was filling the air with fragrance. The flowers are small, fluffy, yellow spheres borne in terminal clusters that can start flowering in late winter and early spring. This tree was growing in a sunny, sheltered location.

Potted up my two new #mimosa plants/trees. It cost me the same price to buy two as it would to purchase one so I’ve got a spare, just in case 😂 I can always transplant it into our front garden if I run out of room on the #balconygarden 💛 I’ve been obsessed with it since I saw it in flower in the spring, and after seeing it and smelling it in #hongkong I’ve become a little obsessed with having my own #tree 🌳 And those very cute leaves 💚 #acaciadealbata #silverwattle #bluewattle #acacia #balconygardening #containergardening #thegardeninggoodlife (at Surbiton) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwe8QQLAr3B/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14sdwe1tx1j6g

Plant of the Day

The air was full of the fragrance of the Acacia dealbata (blue wattle, mimosa, silver wattle) flowers that covered the plant in a cloud of yellow. This evergreen shrub or tree has to finely divided grey-green leaves which emerge with a purple flush. The plant requires a neutral to acid well-drained soil in sheltered location with full sun.

Lovely foliage of the mimosa tree 🌿💚 I’m tempted to knock on the door of this house on my morning commute and ask if they will let me cut some of their lovely blooms 💛 #mimosa #mimosatree #silverwattle #acaciadealbata #bluewattle #lookup #tree #treesofinstagram #trees #morningcommute #dailyexercise #dailywalk #coviddiaries — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/36n39Tq

I promise this is not going to turn into a #mimosa appreciation site but when my favourite container mimosa tree on our neighbourhood is blooming, I had to post a photo 😂💛 #acaciadealbata #silverwattle #bluewattle #mimosatree #surbiton #dailywalk — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2NMw4tH
