Cassia abbreviata, commonly known as the Long-tail Cassia or Sjambok Pod, is a member of the Fabaceae family. It is native to seasonally dry tropical climates in Africa. This plant can grow as a shrub or a small tree and is known for its striking yellow flowers and long, slender seed pods. It has a dormancy period during the dry season.
Cassia abbreviata thrives in bright, direct sunlight and prefers moderate temperatures. It should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This plant does well in moderate humidity and can tolerate seasonal dryness.
تربة

سماد
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize sparingly, as this plant does not require heavy feeding. Apply fertilizer during the growing season for best results.
