Acacia vestita"Hairy Wattle", "Weeping Acacia", "Weeping Boree" Native to parts of Southeastern Australia including New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory, Victoria, South Australia and southern Tasmania.Cultivated in temperate climates outside of Australia as an ornamental. Acacia vestita is an evergreen shrub or small tree popular in California gardens for its unique foliage, lovely blooms and nitrogen-fixing capabilities. It grows about 10-15 feet tall, sometimes a little larger and has a canopy spread of 5-15 feet. Acacia vestita is moderately frost tolerant and drought hardy, though won't produce as much dense foliage if grown in too much shade. It prefers either full sun or to be grown as an understory tree where it will receive adequate sun rays. A. vestita has been used as a livestock fodder plant but this type of use is not common as hardwood doesn't tend to resprout as easily as other wattles which are popular for animal grazing in Australia. Indigenous Australian people have used the seeds as food by first pounding or grinding the seeds and incorporating them into baking cakes or preparing beverages. A. vestita also can exude a gum that may be used as an adhesive.
