Acacia cyanophylla (willow leaf acacia) is found particularly in North Africa but also in Australia. The growth height is (usually) 2-6 meters.
It prefers deep, sandy soil in damp areas.
The willow leaf acacia lives symbiotically with nodule bacteria (Rhizobiaceae) and can thus bind nitrogen from the air. It can conquer new habitats very quickly, as the young plants grow extremely fast.
