Acacia erioloba Bonsai seed Common Name: Camel Thorn or Kameeldoring The beautiful, camel thorn grows well in poor soils and in harsh environmental conditions. It is an ideal tree for the art of bonsai. The tree bears bright yellow ball-like flowers, that are sweetly scented, in late winter and that last through to summer. This is a relict of the parental stock of African Acacia species and is one of the major trees, and frequently the only sizable tree of the deserts of southern Africa . It is a long-lived plant that, in the wild, grows on sand in areas with an annual rainfall of less than 40 mm to 900 mm, and tolerates hot summer temperatures and severe frosts. In very dry areas Acacia erioloba occurs along watercourses or where underground water is present. The taproot can descend to 60 m, providing access to deep ground water. This tree will produce a lovely thick trunk. It's ability to tolerate hot summers & severe frost along with it's flexibility for water requirements, makes it a very good candidate for the art of bonsai, especially for beginners.
