Acacia farnesiana

The Sweet Acacia Tree is a small to medium-sized tree valued for its delicate, feathery foliage and highly fragrant golden-yellow puffball flowers that bloom in late winter and spring. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it offers excellent heat and drought tolerance once established. With its airy canopy, pleasant fragrance, and strong pollinator appeal, the Sweet Acacia is ideal for accent plantings, naturalized landscapes, and sites seeking a drought-tolerant tree with seasonal floral interest.
