Acacia cognata ‘ Limelight ‘

Acacia ‘Limelight’ is a striking, fast-growing evergreen shrub or small tree prized for its vibrant lime-green foliage and bright, feathery appearance. Its fine, needle-like phyllodes create a soft, airy texture, adding lightness and movement to gardens and landscapes. This Acacia typically grows 3–5 m (10–16 ft) tall and wide, making it suitable for hedging, screening, or as a specimen plant in larger garden spaces.

In late winter to spring, ‘Limelight’ produces abundant clusters of golden-yellow, fluffy flowers that attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, providing seasonal interest and color contrast to its bright foliage. The plant is drought-tolerant once established, thrives in full sun, and adapts well to a variety of soil types, including sandy or moderately clay soils.

Landscape uses: Ideal for hedges, screens, mass plantings, or as a feature shrub in contemporary and native-style gardens. Its vibrant foliage, low-maintenance growth, and cheerful yellow blooms make Acacia ‘Limelight’ a versatile and eye-catching addition to both residential and commercial landscapes.
