Plant description
Acacia cognata 'Mini Cog' is a low growing wattle that makes a stunning foliage plant all year round with its graceful weeping foliage and dense bun shaped habit. It is not a prolific flowering shrub, but it is at its best as a hardy and reliable landscaping plant. Prone to root rot in humid climates, it is at its best in the southern states. Frost and drought hardy. Feed with a good native fertiliser. A great low maintenance plant.
