Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Brachychiton populneus, also known as the kurrajong, is a tree native to Australia that can be found in a variety of habitats. Its extended trunk serves as a water storage device to help it survive in dry climates. The tree has multiple uses, including providing food and water for indigenous Australian clans and tribes. It has also been introduced to other parts of the world as an ornamental tree, but has been observed to be invasive in some areas. Horticulturists have created hybrid versions of the kurrajong for use in gardens. The tree's name comes from its perceived similarity to poplar trees, and it has also been referred to as the "lacebark kurrajong" and "bottle tree." However, there are other species that share these names. The kurrajong has also been recorded as a host plant for a type of mistletoe.
