Cassia fistula (Manna Tree)
5 (9)m, Manna Tree is a large shrub to medium sized tree with a straight trunk and spreading branches with broadly feathered leaves. It makes ornamental hanging bright yellow flower spikes and is most impressing when flowering. The dried, dark brown to almost black, up to 70cm long, narrow seedpods contain numerous compartments with a blackish pulp, which is used to make juices and as a cooking ingredient just like Tamarind pulp (Tamarindus indica). Please note that larger amounts have laxative properties. USDA Climate Zone 10.10 seeds per package.
