California. It possesses a beautiful feathery foliage 
and varies in color from silver to green.

Acacia Floribunda Unlike the two former varieties the foliage of the Flori- 
bunda is long and narrow. It, however, produces an 
abundance of beautiful yellow flowers which are very fragrant. This tree 
while being a rapid grower is very erect, often attaining a height of thirty feet. 
The fact that it is in bloom most of the time makes it one of the most highly 
valued for street and ornamental plantings.

Acacia Melanoxvlon Widely known throughout California as the “Black 
* Acacia” and more widely planted for street use 
than any other variety. 
It is a beautiful pyramidal grower, having large oblong leaves of a dark 
green color and flowers of a light yellow color. It is very valuable for street 
planting and is especially adapted for planting in parks where it often attains 
the height of seventy-five feet.

Acacia Mollissima one of the best of the feathery foliage varieties. 
While not planted as extensively as the Melanoxylon, 
or Black Acacia, is a close second. 
The tree is a strong grower and on account of its heavy foliage and its 
extensive crop of beautiful yellow flowers it is somewhat inclined to droop 
and grow rather crooked. For this reason we do not particularly recommend 
it as an avenue or street tree. We, however, believe that in every yard or 
space, that can be found, one of these beautiful flowering Mollissima Aca¬ 
cias should be planted.
