Acacia suaveolens is naturally found in Australia growing on the tablelands of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria to south-east South Australia and Tasmania.

It prefers a well drained sandy to light clay soil that is moderately fertile in a sunny to semi shaded open position and is drought, salt and frost resistant.

The Sweet-scented Wattle is grown for its flowers and bushy habit. It is planted in small or coastal gardens along borders or used in new gardens for fragrance and colour. It is suitable for coastal and low-mountain regions and establishes in 2 to 3 years but may be short lived. It tolerates poor light soils in an open to exposed positions and requires little maintenance once established. ID 262
