Help identifying a tree

[mehdi541]

Hello,
There's an acacia tree that grows next to where I live. Can anyone tell me what kind it is?

I have already posted the pictures on another website so I'll just put the link.

Plant ID, which acacia specie?

Hello, Does anyone know which specie this tree belong to? I live in Dubai, it's a desert climate, but it may not be native from this country.....

Thank you,
Mehdi

looks like ron b from that thread got it right

Delonix - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

afaik there is nothing known about the psychoactivity of these plants.

so if you are determined, you could probably start with some colorimetric reagants, or TLC.

maybe nen888 has some info in regards to its activity (this is the second delonix posted on this forum this week)

It is Delonix Regia. Beautiful tree, easy and fast to start from seed. Bark, leaves and flowers extracts have medicinal properties - anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial uses among others with no known toxicity, but there's no reports of psychoactivity.
