    Couple years ago I acquired some seeds of Acacia Dealbata. The first try was a complete failure the company that sold the seeds forgot a small detail, the seeds are to have boiling water poured over and let soak for 12 hours. This I found out on the net and it does work, all the seeds that I started sprouted and now I have about 15 future trees that will be growing to about 15 feet if I let them. They need some protection for the winter how much I am not sure . I figure if I can grow Carolina Jasmine along side of my house, and now I have some Spanish moss that survived the winter I am almost sure that maybe the Acacia will make it too.
