Cootamundra Wattle Scientific classification Kingdom: Plantae Division: Magnoliophyta Class: Magnoliopsida Order: Fabales Family: Fabaceae Subfamily: Mimosoideae Genus: Acacia Species: A. baileyana Binomial name Acacia baileyana F.Muell. Range of Acacia baileyana Synonyms Acacia baileyana F.Muell. var. aurea Pescott Acacia baileyana F.Muell. var. purpurea F.Muell. Racosperma baileyanum (F.Muell.) Pedley)[1] Acacia baileyana, commonly known as Cootamundra Wattle, is a shrub or tree in the genus Acacia. The scientific name of the species honours the botanist Frederick Manson Bailey. It is indigenous to a small area of southern New South Wales in Australia, but it has been widely planted in other Australian states. In many areas of Victoria, Cootamundra Wattle has become naturalised and is regarded as a weed, out-competing indigenous Victorian species. Almost all wattles have cream to golden flowers. The small flowers are arranged in spherical to cylindrical inflorescences, with only the stamens prominent. Wattles have been extensively introduced into New Zealand and are regarded by many New Zealanders as one of the most typical features of their home landscape.[citation needed] Contents 1 Uses 2 Cultivation 3 Gallery 4 References 4.1 Cited text 5 External links // Uses A. baileyana is used in Europe in the cut flower industry. It is also used as food for bees in the production of honey.[2] Less than 0.02% alkaloids were found in a chemical analysis of Acacia baileyana.[3] Cultivation This plant is adaptable and easy to grow. Unfortunately it has an ability to naturalise (i.e. escape) into surrounding bushland. Also, it hybridises with some other wattles, notably the rare and endangered Sydney Basin species Acacia pubescens. A prostrate weeping form is in cultivation. Its origin is unknown, but it itself is a popular garden plant, its cascading horizontal branches good for rockeries.[4] The fine foliage of the original Cootamundra wattle is grey-green, but a blue-purple foliaged form, known as 'Purpurea' is very popular.[5] Gallery Leaf and blossom Fine detail of leaf Leaf with fingers for scale A. baileyana seeds A. baileyana prostrate form in cultivation, Illawarra Grevillea Park, Bulli, NSW References ^ ILDIS LegumeWeb ^ World Wide Wattle ^ Chemotaxonomie der Pflanzen By Robert Hegnauer ^ Stewart, p. 156 ^ Stewart, p. 157 Cited text Stewart, Angus (2001).
