Acacia is a genus of shrubs and trees belonging to the subfamily Mimosoideae of the family Fabaceae. A shrub or small to medium-sized tree which grows to height of 12m. Acacia Karoo has a rounded crown, branching fairly low down on the trunk. It is variable in shape and size, reaching a maximum of about 12m where there is good water. The bark is red on young branches, darkening and becoming rough with age. Sometimes an attractive reddish colour can be seen in the deep bark fissures The leaves are finely textured and dark green. The flowers appear in early summer in a mass of yellow pompons. The seed pods are flat and crescent shaped. They are green when young becoming brown and dry. The pods split open allowing the seeds to fall to the ground. The thorns are paired, greyish to white and are long and straight. The Acacia Karoo makes a fantastic Bonsai specimen.
