Acacia dealbata - Silver Wattle

A hardy, fast growing, cold tolerant Acacia which retains its fern-like bipinnate foliage throughout its life and is a very pretty bluish-grey and grows to 25m.  It has smooth grey-green to dark grey bark which becomes fissured with age and pale to bright yellow globular flowers in late Winter to Spring.  Overseas, particularly in southern Europe, this plant is commonly called 'Mimosa' and is often used in the cut flower trade.  It is a suitable option for parks, larger properties due to the size, as a windbreak and as a control for soil erosion.

Eucalyptus cinerea - Argyl Apple / Silver Dollar Tree

A tree to 15m with gorgeous aromatic blue-grey round leaves and creamy white to yellow flowers occur in early Summer.  This species is drought and frost tolerant and is perfect as a landscape specimen on its own or in a group planting, the leaves are often seen in floral arrangements.

Kennedia rubicunda - Dusky Coral Pea

A vigorous drought resistant climber with branches that twist around the stems of other plants and has glossy green leaves which are divided into three leaflets.  It is widely distributed in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria and occurs in a variety of habitats and conditions.  This species has the typical 'pea' shaped flower and is a dusky red colour, popular in cultivation and also as a revegetation species, used for screening, as a ground cover and for stabilising embankments.
