neem tree
The neem tree, scientifically known as *Azadirachta indica*, is a fast-growing evergreen tree native to the Indian subcontinent. It can reach heights of up to 20 meters and is known for its dense foliage and small white flowers. The tree thrives in tropical and subtropical climates and is often found in dry, arid regions. Its leaves, bark, and seeds have been used in traditional medicine for centuries.
The neem tree is valued for its numerous benefits, including its natural insect-repelling properties. The leaves contain compounds that are effective against pests, making it a popular choice for organic farming. Additionally, the tree is often planted for shade and as a windbreak, contributing to soil conservation and improving local ecosystems.
