The correct option is D Albizia lebbeck
Albizia lebbeck is a species of Albizia, native to Indomalaya, New Guinea and Northern Australia and widely cultivated and naturalised in other tropical and subtropical regions.
Being one of the most widespread and common species of Albizia worldwide, it is often simply called as "siris", though this name may refer to any locally common member of the genus.
Its uses include environmental management, forage, medicine and wood. It is cultivated as a shade tree in North and South America. In India and Pakistan, the tree is used to produce timber.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
