I wish it were a 'Gummy' tree - that would be yummy ;)

G’day Rico … mm! I prefer the Quandong more, or perhaps desert sultanas; then again the Nitre shrub has nice fruit if you can fight off the snakes - good one Rico; the Gympie-Gympie tree is a mystery. What about Gol-Gol as you travel east. On the way back its called Log-Log - thanks for putting a grin on me Rico - Lindsay

Sounds like one of Donald Trump's cures for COVID-19, so you may be on to something there! Aloha! Rico

Dendrocnide, the Australian "stinging" tree, is not funny! Aloha! Rico
