I had a beautiful weeping Acacia in my yard when I bought my home. Unfortunately, it blew over in a store. An arborist told me he thought it was Emerald Cascade. So I specified that when I ordered a replacement. The replacement tree (now 4 yrs old) doesn't have the 3 ft + long, weeping branches the other tree did (was 15 yrs old). I'm wondering if I have the correct variety. It stays green all year here, and the leaf litter creates a natural mulch. I get many compliments from neighbors on the tree even though this one is not as well formed as the previous one.

This is a particularly graceful wattle, growing into a large shrub or small tree in the South-East of Australia. I grew one from seed and it is now a 4 metre tree in my garden in full flower at the moment. Like all Australian acacias, the seed has a hard coating and germinates best if boiling water is poured over the seeds before sowing.
