Acacia Baileyana

I found this Acacia Baileyana or Cootamundra wattle tree with very small blooms and buds in the Melbourne Botanical Gardens

 

The full bloom measures approximately 6mm in diameter.

 

It is a resilient adaptable wattle, with feathery delicate mimosa foliage and masses of iconic lemon-yellow powderpuff flowers in winter.

 

It's perhaps the epitome of Aussie acacia, appearing in stamps, in song and in artworks.

 

Best view enlarged.

 

Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated..

 

Peaceful Bokeh Wednesday .
