Plant Description

The mastic tree or lentisk (Pistacia lentiscus) is a hardy, evergreen shrub or small tree native to the Mediterranean region. It features dense, leathery dark green leaves with a glossy finish, and grows up to 4 meters tall. In spring, it produces small, unassuming red flowers that mature into bright red berries, which later turn black as they ripen. Its distinctive aromatic resin is prized, and the plant's rough bark exudes a sticky substance known as mastic gum, traditionally used in various culinary and medicinal applications. Its resilience and beautiful foliage make it popular in drought-tolerant landscaping.
