Acacia was brought to Europe in the 16th century from America, where it spread quite rapidly. It is recognizable by its clustered inflorescences of white to pale yellow color, which smell stunningly of honey. Wood is poorly combustible, and the flowers contain many valuable compounds that have a beneficial effect on our body.
The flowers can be used both fresh and dried. Tea made from dried flowers is good for soothing coughs, but it also has an anti-inflammatory, convulsive effect and acts as a mild laxative. In folk medicine, it is known to trigger sweating and inhibit the formation of stomach acid, which is especially useful in the treatment of gastric and intestinal ulcers.

I love the aroma of acacia.
I also. This plant has a wonderful scent.
The picture is really beautiful, dear Vidocka…..i think i know those flowers
Thank you, Lado. I don’t see this flower often.
With great pleasure, dear Vida …. if I’m not mistaken they also smell nice
You are right. This plant is very fragrant
It can’t be otherwise, dear Vida
I have seen this at my neighbor’s garden. Very cool insect too.
I don’t know if you’re the only one who saw the insect as well. 😃
I have not seen these before, beautiful.
I agree, the plant is really beautiful.
we have this one all around our neighborhood! it has a wonderful smell.
Now, i have not tried the tea – adding it to my list!
This plant is not common in our country. I also have to try her tea.
it is soon the iced tea (Sun Tea) season in Maryland. i will have to make some!
I know acacia very well. It has the smell that takes me back to my childhood.
I agree. Her scent is divine.
We have these here but I did not know they have health properties.
I, too, discovered its properties only recently.
Such a beautiful capture! I love these trees.
Thank you, Ellie. I would have this plant in the garden if I had the space.
