Native to dry regions of Africa and the Middle East, it develops an attractive spreading canopy and pairs nicely with other arid-climate species in warm gardens and landscapes.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis versatile tree works well as a specimen planting, shade tree, or trained bonsai subject for growers who enjoy structured forms. Its wood, seed pods, and gum have long been valued in traditional crafts and regional uses, while its nectar-rich blossoms draw pollinators.
