The Ghaf tree is a drought-resistant, slow-growing, and long-lived tree that can reach heights of about 15 to 20 meters. It has a rounded, dense canopy with small, bipinnate leaves that are silvery-gray or bluish-green, which help the tree conserve water. This tree is well-adapted to arid and desert environments and can survive in harsh conditions with minimal water. It's often found in sandy or rocky soils, including desert plains, wadis, and dry riverbeds.
