Dichrostachys (two-colored spikes). Leguminosae. Stiff shrubs, with bipinnate lvs. and small leathery lfts. and very small polygamous fls. in spikes, sometimes mentioned as useful for cult. in warmhouses. The species are few, in Trop. Asia, Afr., and Austral. Fls. in the upper part of the spike perfect, those of the lower part bearing 10 long filiform staminodia; corolla not papilionaceous, comprising 5 strap-shaped petals that are more or less united at base; stamens 10 in the perfect fls., free, slightly exserted: pod narrow, compressed, mostly or nearly indehiscent. D. platycarpa, Welw., is or has been in cult.: a slender spiny tree, 10-15 ft. high: pinnae 10-18 pairs, the lfts. 1-2 lines long and very narrow: spikes usually shorter than the lvs.: pod twisted, 2-4 in. long, about 1 in. broad. Guinea. D. nutans, Benth. (Cailliea Dichrostachys, Guill. & Perr.), has been intro. in S. Calif.: spiny, much contorted shrub or small tree: lvs. glabrous or pubescent, acacia-like; pinnae 5-10 pairs; lfts. 10-20 or more pairs, sessile, linear or linear-oblong, rarely as long as ½ in.: fls- in dense axillary twin or solitary spikes, the upper ones sulfur-yellow and the lower ones rosy lilac: pod twisted, ⅓ in. or less broad. Cent. Afr. L. H. B.
