A reply: "Looks like black wattle :Acacia mearnsii. Need to check the bark and fruits before confirmation. These trees are very common in Ooty ( at 5000 ft ) grown on commercial scale. The bark is used for tannin extraction ( most valuable vegetable tannin for tanning hides and skins ). In fact the wattle extract company is located in Mettupalyam (near Coimbatore) on the foothills of Ooty"
