Prosopis cineraria, known as ghaf or shami, is a drought-resistant tree native to arid regions of South Asia and the Middle East, particularly the Thar Desert and Arabian Peninsula. Revered as the national tree of the United Arab Emirates, it tolerates extreme heat, salinity, and minimal rainfall. Its leaves, pods, and bark have numerous traditional uses, and it plays a vital ecological role in stabilizing desert soils.
