(Seed grown)
 
The River Wattle is a graceful, quick-growing Aussie with the kind of hair every plant wishes it had — fine, emerald-green foliage cascading from weeping branches. Usually topping out around 20 feet, it makes a striking feature tree or large shrub.
 
Hardy to about 24–26 °F and drought-tolerant once established, though it appreciates an occasional drink. Native to coastal New South Wales and Victoria, it’s the full-sized version of the popular dwarf form, ‘Cousin Itt’.
