Red quebracho, scientifically known as Schinopsis spp., refers to a majestic tree species found primarily in South America. Renowned for its robust architecture and vibrant appearance, this remarkable tree possesses a number of synonyms, each reflecting its unique characteristics. One such synonym is the "dyer's quebracho", highlighting its use as a natural dye source due to its rich red pigment. Additionally, it is often called "axe-breaker" or "ironwood" in reference to its incredibly tough, dense timber, which is resistant to both rot and insect damage.
