Brush Wattle Root Trainer Seedling

This tree, typically less than 5-10 meters tall, features densely hairy ribbed twigs and bronze, hairy young shoots. Its alternate frond-like leaves, measuring 20-30 cm, are divided twice along the midribs, with 8-15 pairs of main subdivisions and 20-40 pairs of linear leaflets that are silky underneath. In May to August, it produces numerous tiny green-yellow flowers in flowerheads resembling a bottlebrush, followed by flat, green to brown seed pods measuring 8-15 cm, containing foul-smelling seeds. These trees are particularly useful for enriching soil; they can be chopped and dropped regularly or chipped for ramial mulch when quite young, ideally around 2 years old, as they grow rapidly, providing ample ramial material in a short time.
