Sweet acacia is a small, thorny desert tree known for its fragrant, golden-yellow puffball flowers that bloom in early spring. Its delicate, feathery leaves and sweet scent make it a favorite in low-water landscapes. Hardy and heat-tolerant, it provides shade, attracts pollinators, and adds a touch of elegance and aroma to the desert garden.
