Acacia iteaphylla

Size: 40cm/45L
Sale price$250.00

Acacia iteaphylla, or Flinders Range Wattle, is a hardy, fast-growing Australian native shrub with soft, narrow grey-green foliage and a naturally arching form. Flowering from late winter to spring, it produces masses of pale yellow, ball-shaped blooms that attract birds and pollinators.

Reaching 2–4 metres tall and 2–3 metres wide, it’s ideal for screening, low hedging, or native garden borders. It performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and is both drought and frost tolerant once established.

They look excellent when used along fence lines, planted in a row as an informal screen, or softened into dry slopes and native-style garden beds. Reliable and low maintenance, it's a great choice for tough spots needing coverage, colour, and texture.

Please note, as living products, our trees naturally vary in size and appearance throughout the seasons. The photos on our website are provided as a helpful guide, but may not always reflect our current batches. We always aim to deliver stock as pictured, but some variation is to be expected. For up-to-date sizing, please refer to our current height guide. If you’d like to see photos of our current stock, just let us know—we’re happy to send them!
