A * »* 11 * • * s one t ^ le ^est of the feathery foliage varieties. 
Acacia MolllSSima 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 ex¬ 
tensive 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 Acacias should 
be planted.
