About this variety
Catechu Tree (Senegalia catechu) is a deciduous, thorn-bearing tree with a straight trunk, delicate bipinnate foliage, pale flower spikes, and flat brown pods.
Also known as: Khair, Kattha, Khadira, Khayer, Cutch tree, Black cutch, Cachou, Acacia catechu and Mimosa catechu.
For cultivation, choose full sun in a warm site, especially where a drought-tolerant woody plant is appropriate after establishment. Use a freely draining sandy or loamy medium; avoid dense wet soil around young roots. Freshly sown containers should have drainage and good air movement. Natural seed lots vary, so emergence speed and the number of seedlings depend on pretreatment, temperature, moisture, and the grower's conditions.
Seed starting: Scarify the hard seed coat or pour hot, not actively boiling, water over the seeds and soak as it cools for 12–24 hours. Sow 1–2 cm deep and keep near 25–30°C. Label the container with the sowing date, keep it out of standing water, and check moisture regularly. Do not discard a sound pot simply because individual seeds emerge at different times.
After emergence, Give seedlings strong light after emergence and reduce humidity gradually. Transplant before roots circle the container, water moderately, and use care when handling the developing thorny stems.
