Acacia pubescens, R. Br. Hairy Wattle. A shrub, with drooping branches and hirsute petioles and rachis; pinnae 3-10 pairs (mostly 3-8), 1/2-3/4in. long; lfts. 6-20 pairs (mostly 16), crowded, linear, smooth, 1/12—1/6in. wide: fls. in simple racemes longer than lvs., on long pubescent peduncles, 15-20 in a head; calyx short, sinuate-toothed; corolla smooth, protruding in bud, the petals united. Blooms in spring. B.M. 1263. F.R. 1:733.—This belongs to the series in which the pods are all flat, seeds longitudinal, last fold of funicle forming a short lateral or oblique aril, with very small folds below it. Much grown in greenhouses in the E. TJ. S., where it is a general favorite on account of its feathery lvs. and bright blossoms, which are in their full beauty at Eastertide, and are becoming very popular for church decorations at that time. ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
