ROBINIA, the false acacia, is a tree up to 60 feet high, and is native to the eastern United States.
There it develops a trunk 3 or 4 feet in diameter and produces a hard close grained and durable timber.
In America it is known as black locust or simply as locust.

THE original home of stinkwort is the Mediterranean region, including northern France. Apparently the first Australian record was at Onkaparinga in South Australia about 90 years ago.
Efforts were made to keep it in bounds during the years immediately following introduction, but it continued to spread and is now f i r m ly established in all agricultural districts of South Australia.
It also covers large tracts of land in New South Wales and Victoria and occurs in most districts of Western Australia.
