Uses: As a feature plant in mixed native landscapes for it's foliage and form, or grouped as a screen or barrier in wider verges, median strips, parks and reserves. Not suitable as a wind-break as branches are too brittle. Natural regeneration can occur by suckering if roots are damaged. Responds well to pruning.
Cultural use: The Victorian Yarra tribe of Aborigines is reported to have used the wood to make spear-throwers. Other uses include eating the fruits raw or roasted, tools and implements and medicine for snakebite.
