About the Plant: Australian Sandalwood, scientifically known as Santalum spicatum, is a fascinating species of sandalwood native to Australia. It belongs to the Santalaceae family and is one of the four species of sandalwood that occur in Western Australia. This species is primarily found in the semi-arid areas of the Southwest region of Australia. The Australian Sandalwood is a shrubby plant that can reach heights of up to 6 meters (20 ft), although it often remains smaller. One of its remarkable traits is its ability to tolerate drought and salt, making it well-suited to survive in challenging environmental conditions. The foliage of Australian Sandalwood is characterized by its grey-green color, adding a subtle and appealing touch to its appearance. However, the real treasure lies within the heartwood of the tree, where the essential oil is extracted. The heartwood possesses a smooth, sweet, earthy, and woody scent, making Australian Sandalwood oil highly sought after in aromatherapy and perfumery.
