ACACIA LOPANTHA 
Half-hardy trees or shrubs with finely laciniated foliage and 
long racemes of small yellow flowers. In the North they can be 
used as conservatory plants only, but are perfectly hardy for the 
Southern states. Before planting soak seeds in hot water until 
they swell. The hard, shiny black seeds, either alone or combined 
with beads, make lovely necklaces. For this purpose they must 
be soaked in hot water (near boiling) until they swell. String 
them while soft. If all do not swell at once, keep the rest soaking 
in the hot water. After drying, they go back to their natural 
size and color. One-half ounce makes a nice necklace. Pkt., 5c; 
y 2 oz„ 15c; oz., 25c; M lb., 75c.
