AEucalyptus grandis and black wattle
BMukwa and Zimbabwean teak
CPinus patula and Mexican cypress

Explanation: Mukwa (Pterocarpus angolensis) and Zimbabwean teak (Baikiaea plurijuga) grow naturally in the country's woodlands and give the hard, heavy, durable timber used for furniture and flooring. Pine, cypress, eucalyptus, wattle, jacaranda and silky oak were all brought into the country and planted, so none of them is indigenous.
