Hi, i was told by someone who knows acacia's that this is an acacia,but i am unsure what species this is.

Im in Canada and during the summer we get anything from 20-40 degrees celcius or 68 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit
and during the winter get anything from -10 to- 40 degrees celcius or 14 to -40 degrees Fahrenheit

I did not take a picture of the tree,but i will try to get one tomorrow.This tree looks like any other acacia tree and it has no spines.


Also if anyone has information on other acacia species that tolerate freezing temperature ,please do share.

..a few of the australian tryptamine species grow in areas that can occasionally snow. Almost all are frost tolerant (& drought tolerant for that matter).
would really need a photo (pref. with flower or seed) clearly showing leaf, or a very careful drawing, to even get close to an ID...

OK, seen photo..umm.. we are not looking at an acacia here (some similar, but these look like true leaves, not phyllodes (actually an extension of the bark,
which acacias have) . would have to see trunk, habit, and, particularly, seed or flower to pick genus or family..

looks interesting though...
