Tamarisks
Also known as: Taray
Tamarisks are a genus of dry-climate specialist plants that originate from Africa and Eurasia. They are all shrubs or trees that have thin branches and a greyish tint to their scaly leaves. Several tamarisks are grown ornamentally, often as shade trees and windbreaks. These plants produce a useful wood that was once used to make bows, as well as for carpentry and fuel.

Water: Tamarisks is drought-tolerant, thriving in arid conditions. It has deep roots to access water, necessitating watering every 2-3 weeks. While often found outdoors, tamarisks adapts well to cultivated landscapes with controlled irrigation, benefiting from natural rain cycles when available.
Propagation: Propagation of tamarisks primarily occurs through seed sowing and cuttings. Successful growth requires warm temperatures, well-draining soil, and full sun. Special attention to saline tolerance is necessary. A recommended cutting method includes preparing a 6-8 inch stem, using rooting hormone, and planting in a sand-peat mix.
