Description
Acacia courtii is a rare wattle native to the mid north coast of Australia. It is a tall shrub or weeping tree growing to 7-20 metres in height. The bark is smooth and grey when young and later becomes black and furrowed. Small branches are a maroon brown colour. The leaves are dull green and narrow, up to 18 cm long, and have a small gland on the leaf edge just above the stem.
From late spring to mid-summer spikes of pale yellow globular flowers are produced followed by straight or curved, narrow woody pods up to 18 cm long. This wattle usually grows on steep, dry, rocky slopes and in mixed dry forest on shallow soils, often under a canopy of White Mahogany and Grey Gum.
It naturally grows in dry sclerophyll forest, in shallow soils, however it can adapt well to semi arid to semi tropical conditions as long as soil is well draining.
Germination Tips: To increase the germination rate of Acacia courtii seed, the seed should be treated first. It can be soaked in hot water or the seed can be nicked or scarred so that water will penetrate the seed’s hard coating and induce germination. Use a sandy free draining soil mix and place in a warm area.
