Acacia
Botanical (Tree) (Latin acacis meaning Point)
The acacia tree, native to Africa, Australia, and South America, has been valued for its many uses:
- African Acacia: Produces gum arabic, used in food, medicine, and industry.
- Australian Acacia (Wattles): Its bark was traditionally used for tanning leather.
- Tannin-Rich Species: Some African species are rich in tannin, important in dyeing and industrial processes.
- Furniture: Acacia wood is prized for its strength and beauty.
Because of its practical uses and attractive appearance, acacia trees were often planted along streets, providing shade and colour. Streets named "Acacia" likely had these trees lining them, giving shade and colour to residents.
