Acacia Fettuccini 140MM

Acacia cognata 'Fettuccini'

I am Acacia Fettuccini. My family originated from Eastern Australia.

Habit Shrub - Easy Care & Low Maintenance

Plant family Fabaceae

I am a beautiful and hardy weeping small shrub with gorgeous twirling lime green foliage forming a dense mop. My attractive lush foliage and compact habit makes me a great addition to any garden, rockery, container and I work well in large scale landscape design. I look fantastic all year with my lime green foliage creating beautiful contrast. Fast growing I make a great low fencing hedge or screen. Plant me in a row at 60cm centres to create a low and zero maintenance hedge. I have great natural form and generally do not need pruning however I can be cut back very hard if I grow larger than desired. I tolerate a range of soil types including heavy clay.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

I make a great low hedge - just plant a row of me & I will do the rest
