One of our great forest trees, the Knysna Yellowwood, could be used in many ways: to stabilize soil, provide shade, be harvested for massive timber, fine branches (the sprouts after cutting) for making utensils, drawing charcoal, kindling. The bark can be used for tanning and a way could be found to extract the copious sugar from the fruit without the acrid bitter terpene, or breed low terpene varieties.
