Aloha Shamans of Oz my first post here, i am dango and i live in the hawaiian islands. in my quest for info a friend referred me to your forum. he said you all are familiar with acacia confusa and like species. i am curious as to what part of the plant contains alkaloids? (leaves, bark, root bark) if bark or root bark, can it be collected without harming the lifeforce of the plant? i read somewhere that the leaves contain cyanide or like a cyanide precurser, is this so? any experienced feedback is appreciated. peace, dango
