Easter Cassia<br />

Senna pendula var. glabrata<br />

A showy evergreen scrambling<br />

shrub that can reach 3m in<br />

height.<br />

The compound leaves are mid<br />

green and rounded at the tip.<br />

The flowers are bright yellow<br />

and form a spectacular show as<br />

they completely cover the<br />

foliage in Autumn.<br />

Cylindrical green pods follow<br />

with abundance of seeds.<br />

Seeds are spread by birds, insects, water and gravity.<br />

The plentiful seed ensures that even those that fall close to<br />

the bush maintain the invasive population.<br />

Dwarf Fringed Wattle<br />

Acacia fimbriata 'Nana'<br />

A spectacular new cultivar of this<br />

local favourite.<br />

With dense fine foliage this plant<br />

can be used as an effective screen<br />

or equally well as a feature.<br />

It is covered in masses of yellow<br />

flowers in winter-spring but has<br />

all round appeal due to the<br />

attractive foliage and growth<br />

habit.
