Senna singueana, commonly known as Wild Cassia, Stinking Cassia, White Wild Sensitive, or White Senna, is a deciduous shrub native to the savannas and open woodlands of Africa, particularly in regions with a marked dry season. It typically grows rapidly to a height and width of 6-10 feet (1.8-3 meters). The plant features pinnate leaves and bears clusters of fragrant, showy white or yellow flowers during the summer months, which are attractive to a variety of pollinators. The bark is relatively smooth and light brown, and the plant may produce elongated seed pods after flowering.

Wild Cassia is valued for its ornamental flowers and its ability to adapt to a range of soil types, making it suitable for use in xeriscaping and as a specimen plant in tropical and subtropical gardens. It is also utilized for its medicinal properties in traditional African medicine. In cultivation, it requires full sun exposure and thrives in medium or fast-draining clay, loam, or sandy soils. While it is drought-tolerant once established, moderate watering is recommended for optimal growth. Gardeners should be aware that Senna singueana can become invasive outside its native range, so it is crucial to consult local guidelines before planting.CC BY-SA 4.0
