Ziziphus spina-christi is a hardy, evergreen to semi-evergreen tree often used as a tolerant shade or amenity tree in arid and semi-arid landscapes. It has a sculptural form with thorny branches and produces small edible drupes; it’s highly valued where salt and wind tolerance are needed. Use it for windbreaks, parkland planting or low-maintenance urban greenery.
