Tree known as wattle in Australia (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acacia

(Other definitions for acacia that I've seen before include "Wattle genus" , "Spiny tree of warm climates" , "source of gum arabic" , "Australian tree" , "Thorny shrub with yellow or white-flowers" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
