Mastic Tree is a dense, evergreen tree with small, leathery green leaves and a naturally rounded form. Its tight foliage and clean structure give it a polished, intentional look while still feeling organic and desert-appropriate.
This tree is extremely durable once established. It thrives in full sun and well-draining soil and requires minimal watering. The leaves stay compact and controlled, making it a strong low-maintenance option for long-term landscapes.
The branching structure is sturdy and holds its shape well over time. While it does not rely on showy flowers, its consistent texture and year-round greenery provide visual stability in the landscape.
Mastic Tree works well as a shade tree, privacy screen, or structural anchor. It pairs easily with gravel ground cover, shrubs, and other desert plants, adding mass and balance to modern desert designs.
