One of the more attractive and garden-worthy wattle trees is Acacia leprosa - a medium-sized wattle with an attractive weeping habit. Commonly called the Cinnamon Wattle, its mid-green foliage is fragrant, and when crushed, smells of cinnamon. Small lemon-yellow flowers are attractive in winter to spring. Much prized for its weeping habit, Acacia leprosa can be planted as an informal weeping hedge or as a specimen tree.
