The prostrate form of Acacia amblygona (sometimes sold under the name 'Winter Gold') has been in cultivation for many years. It is a reasonably hardy ground cover which can spread to about 1-1.5 metres in diameter and is very spectacular when in flower. It prefers well drained soils in a sunny position. The upright forms are rarely seen in cultivation.

Propagation is relatively easy by normal seed raising methods following pretreatment by soaking in boiling water or by scarification. Cuttings are also reasonably successful and this is the only method that should be used for the prostrate form to be sure of retaining the prostrate habit.
