Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I choose this article because apparently the common name in english is called the Sausage Tree and wanted to know a little more. It is apparently the only species of its genus. Initial impression is positive overall as it provides a general understanding.

The first little paragraph is good, it provides a short overview that encompasses enough information.

The article then goes in to etymology, which provides info on the name of the tree, which is probably the main reason why it is looked up.

The description provides general info on the physical appearance of the tree, flowers, and basic information on the fruit.

The article also talks on specific species interactions, and interactions in where the tree has been introduced. There is quick blurb on cultivation, touching on that the fruit is poisonous, but that when prepared correctly it can be eaten. That aspect of the article could be improved with more background information on it. (Although it does discuss on how the fruit can be used to make an alcoholic drink but there aren't any articles or references.)

The talk page is sporadic on information and doesn't seem to really be active.
