Tamarix safflower is a deciduous tree or shrub, its crown is open, the wind blocking effect is excellent. The root system is developed, so it is suitable to be used as a protective plant for soil and water loss in sandy soil area. Plants are rich in tannins and have the ability to resist insects.

1. Growth habits of Tamarix

Born in river alluvial plains, seashore, beachhead, wet saline land and sandy wasteland.

It is resistant to high temperature and cold; it is a light-loving tree species and is not resistant to shade. Can withstand strong sun exposure, dry and moisture-resistant, wind-resistant and alkali-resistant soil, and can grow on heavy saline-alkali soil with 1% salt content. Deep roots, the main and lateral roots are very developed, the main roots often extend to the underground water layer, the deepest can reach more than 10m, strong germination, resistance to pruning and cutting; grow fast, the annual growth is as high as 2.5-3.0m in 4-5 years, a large number of flowering and fruiting, and the tree age can reach more than 100 years.

Introduction of Tamarix safflower

Tamarix safflower has a wide adaptability, salt and alkali tolerance, drought tolerance, all kinds of soil can be planted, sand and clay grow well. Common in coastal areas, it is necessary to keep the soil moist when growing in inland non-saline-alkali soil. Its current-year branches can blossom and are very resistant to pruning, so when planting hedges, they should be pruned in spring. When Tamarix safflower is sown and propagated, it can be sown in a small area and only need to be covered with soil. When the seedlings grow to a certain extent, they are transplanted to greenhouse flowerpots for the winter and planted in the following spring or early summer. When cutting propagation, cutting a year to produce mature branches of 15-25 cm, late autumn open-air cutting in the seedbed or direct cutting in the place to be cultivated, the survival rate is high. Adult plants are resistant to severe cold.
