Acacia cornigera
Acacia cornigera, commonly known as Bullhorn Acacia (family Fabaceae), is a swollen-thorn acacia native to Mexico and Central America. The common name of "bullhorn" refers to the large, enlarged, hollowed-out swollen thorns (technically called stipular spines) that occur in pairs at the base of leaves, and resemble the horns of a steer.
