An adaptable hardy spreading shrub with large broad foliage that produces attractive twisted seed pods and bright yellow flowers which occur from May to September, being more prolific in the latter months.
The indigenous people used the sticky and unripe pods which when crushed and moistened were rubbed between the palms of their hands to produce a soap-like lather that removed dirt and cleaned their hands.
A widespread species of northern Australia that extends from the Pilbara and southern Kimberley region of Western Australia across the Great Sandy and Tanami Deserts of the Northern Territory into North-western Queensland.
Well suited to harsh climates, in more favourable conditions it can grow as a small tree to 9 metres.
