It is known for its dense, dark heartwood that is highly valued for its strength, durability, and attractive color. The tree has small, elliptical leaves and produces small, yellowish flowers that give way to small, black fruits.

Suitable Climate Condition : Diospyros ebenum thrives in warm, tropical climates with temperatures between 20°C and 30°C (68°F to 86°F). It prefers well-drained, fertile soils but can tolerate a range of soil types. The tree requires moderate rainfall and is drought-tolerant once established. It grows well in full sun and benefits from protection from strong winds.
