The Native Australian species Acacia Pycnantha, or Golden Wattle (Aboriginal name Karrank), is significant in many ways.
Not only is it Australia’s National floral emblem, it is a bush tucker tree too! The green seeds can be used like peas, the flowers used to make perfume and yellow pigment, and the bark is rich in tannins.
