Fast growing little evergreen tree - the classic Mimosa with the ferny leaves. Masses of fragrant yellow flowers in spring. Requires full sun and reasonably well drained (but not chalky) soil. The flowers are yellow, fragrant and copious. They form in the autumn but don't come out until early spring, so don't prune after late summer if you want flowers the following spring. As with most trees, they're programmed to go straight up to find the light (whether they need to or not). On a young tree this can give the impression that they're destined to be tall and slender which they're not. Most Acacias reach a height of about 15-25ft and grow out. The eventual shape of a mature tree is quite squat and wide. Man appears to have dominion over most living things so you can always shin up a ladder and give it a haircut. It won't mind - just do it after flowering (April) unless you dislike the flowers in which case you can do it earlier. Left to their own devices, relatively short (25ft ish), quite broad and not dense. A marvellous tree for screening (they take your eye away without cutting all the light out) but unfortunately not reliably frost hardy except in large built up or coastal areas. If damaged in exceptionally cold winters, a well established tree will often re shoot from the base; a new lease of life.
In early March, you suddenly begin to realise how un-rare (I can't say common) these are. Clouds of yellow flowers all over the place but generally in areas whose phone number begins 0208 or 0207 or within 6 or 7 miles of the coast.

N.B. When clipping several plants with the same tool, have a bucket containing a 5% bleach solution and swish your blades around for 30 seconds between plants to sterilise them. This will help avoid the chance of cross contamination of disease.
As with all woody plants, plant high, exposing as much of the taper at the base of the trunk as possible. Allowing soil to accumulate round the base of a tree can be fatal. Keep very well watered when first planted.

It's estimated that the world's entire population, 1,000 years ago, was 300,000,000 - about the same number as the United States in 2006. In 1804, eight hundred years after reaching the 300 million mark, the world's population arrived at one billion people for the first time - it then took another century, in 1927, to hit 2 billion. The twentieth century, however, saw the world's population numbers skyrocket; 3 billion in 1959, 4 billion in 1974; 5 billion in 1987, 6 billion in 1998, and then 7 billion by the end of 2011. It was estimated there were 8 Billion(!) of us by the end of 2022. The United Nations estimates the world's population will reach approximately 10 billion by 2100. At this time the world averages around 200,000 births each and every day - the equivalent of one-and-a-half cities the size of Los Angeles being added to the planet every single month! As of this writing China, India, and the United States remain the most populated countries on the planet with India expected to pass up China in 2025...

Flowers That Look Like Something Else
The flower, as a reproductive organ, evolved with one primary purpose in mind – to attract pollinators like insects or birds. This function has driven their astounding evolutionary explosion of distinct colors and shapes, some of which have even come to resemble various recognizable figures, plants or animals. Their stunning colors and biodiversity have attracted another type of creature as well – us.
The Lobster Claw, also known as the False Bird of Paradise and Wild Plantain, is a bold color flower that emerges from clumps of leaves that look like bananas. The captivating reddish flower-like bracts actually hide the plant’s true flowers, which require birds with specialized beaks for pollination. The Lobster Claw can grow up to three and a half feet tall and they bloom several times each year.
