Are palo verde tree flowers poisonous to dogs?

I would say not poisonous for dogs since this blurb mentions jackrabbits use them as food? "This durable plant, which grows in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 9 through 10, provides shelter and sustenance for jackrabbits, birds and other wildlife. Palo verde also supplied food for indigenous people and early settlers, who ground the seeds and pods into flour or cereal."

What does jackrabbits eat?

In the summer they eat mostly green plants and flowers that are high in water content, so they do not require much water. They will also eat sagebrush and cacti. In the winter, they don't hibernate, and mainly eat shrubs. Jackrabbits are constantly eating and consume large quantities of food relative to their size. Fifteen jackrabbits eat as much food as a large grazing cow in one day. In agricultural areas the jackrabbit may become a pest to farmers by eating their crops.In winter the diet of the jackrabbit is based chiefly on bark and buds of bushes, and in summer it prefers to eat tender grasses. In very dry periods of the year it will eat cacti, which are quite plentiful in some parts of its range.
