Marri is a type of tree native to the southwestern region of Australia, particularly in the Jarrah Forest and Wandoo Woodlands. It is known for its tall stature, reaching heights of up to 50 meters, and its distinctive rough, fibrous bark. The tree produces small, white flowers that attract various pollinators, including bees.
The wood of the Marri tree is highly valued for its durability and resistance to decay, making it suitable for construction and furniture. Additionally, the tree's sap, known as Marri gum, has been used by Indigenous Australians for various purposes, including as a food source and for medicinal applications.
