Sandalwood Sapling (Indian Chandan)
Sandalwood Sapling (Indian Chandan) ā The Sacred and Fragrant Tree
Sandalwood (Santalum album), or Indian Chandan, is a slow-growing evergreen tree famous for its aromatic heartwood, highly prized in spiritual, medicinal, and cosmetic uses. Native to India, it is known for its rich, sweet fragrance, which is used in incense, perfumes, and traditional rituals.
This tree grows slowly and requires warm, tropical to subtropical conditions. It thrives in well-draining soil and relies on host trees, like neem or tamarind, for nutrients. Sandalwood is revered in India for its calming effects and is used for skin care, mental clarity, and respiratory health.
Growing Indian Chandan takes patience, but its aromatic wood and cultural significance make it a valuable addition to any garden or collection.
