Read about Acacia saligna in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Acacia saligna, Wendl. (A. leiophylla, Benth.). Fig. 72. A low tree or tall shrub with angular, rather drooping branches: phyll. lanceolate to linear-lanceolate, or even oblanceolate, 3-8 1/2 in. or lower lvs. 1 ft. long, 1/4-1 1/4 or even 1 3/4 in. wide, acute to obtuse, narrowed to base; 1 central nerve, often excentric, ending in a recurved point or obtuse; gland at base or none: fls. large (1/2in. in diam.), either in large racemes at the ends of the branches or reduced to 4 or 5 heads strung along the axils of the lvs. for 2 or 3 ft.; peduncles varying from 1/4-1/2in. in length: pods constricted between the seeds, flat with nerve-like margins, 3-5 in. long, 1/4in. wide; funicle club-shaped, three-fourths length of seed; ripe Aug. Fls. March-May and to slight extent at various times.—Botanists do not find any well-marked differences between this species and the next and are therefore inclined to combine the two. Nurserymen base their distinction on the color of the phyll., a bluish-tinged one being called A. cyanophylla, while the green phyll., especially if it is smaller, is called A. saligna. Both forms are also said to have been secured from seed gathered from a single tree. Nurserymen should test this to satisfy themselves. Another so-called botanical distinction gives the funicle straight in one species and folded in the other. This does not hold, as such a combination can be seen in the same plant, and even in the same pod. This species is variable in other respects. Fls. may be in groups of 4 or 5 and strung along the axis of lvs. for 2 or 3 ft. This type may have either large or small or even mixed phyll., or the fls. may be in large clusters (either erect or pendulous) at the ends of the branches. In either case, the large or the small or the mixed types of phyll. may accompany them. CH
