Baby Daddy Acacia Burkei

**Actual size and shape may vary**

Acacia burkei – African Blackwood Baby Daddy

The Acacia burkei is a sculptural, bonsai-worthy tree native to the dry savannas of Southern Africa. Admired for its textured trunk, fine feathery foliage, and graceful, upright form, this species strikes the perfect balance between rugged character and delicate beauty. Its natural habitat is hot, bright, and arid—conditions that have shaped it into a resilient, slow-growing miniature tree with strong architectural presence.

In cultivation, Acacia burkei thrives with plenty of sunlight and minimal water. Its branching habit develops into a striking silhouette over time, giving the plant a refined, ancient-tree feel even at a small size. A standout for collectors who appreciate miniature trees with personality, structure, and long-term potential.

Care Tips

Light: Prefers bright, direct sunlight for several hours per day to maintain compact, healthy growth.
Water: Allow soil to dry completely between waterings; water sparingly.
Temperature: Keep above 60°F (16°C). Protect from frost or prolonged cold.
