Neem trees (Azadirachta indica) are stunning broad-leaved evergreens that can reach heights of up to 30 meters with a girth of 2.5 meters. Their wide-spreading branches form rounded crowns that can extend as much as 20 meters across. Neem trees are known for their resilience, staying leafy even during extreme droughts, although they may shed leaves under severe conditions.
Neem is highly regarded for its medicinal properties, especially in skincare. Neem preparations are effective in treating a variety of skin conditions, including septic sores, infected burns, and various skin diseases. The leaves, when applied as poultices or decoctions, are particularly beneficial for boils, ulcers, and eczema. Neem oil is also commonly used to treat skin conditions such as scrofula, indolent ulcers, and ringworm.
NEEM TREE Care Instructions:
- Sunlight: After receiving your Neem tree, it’s crucial to avoid exposing it to direct sunlight immediately, as this can cause leaf burn.
- Watering: Be careful not to overwater your plant. Overwatering is the primary cause of outdoor plant decline. Ensure that the plant has good drainage and water it moderately.
- Planting: Dig a hole that is twice the width and depth of the polybag containing your Neem tree. Fill the hole with a mixture of compost and topsoil. Carefully place the plant into the loosened soil. It’s important to water the plant in the morning, using approximately 300ml of water.
