Neem trees are prized for their incredible properties. While this plant is not shippable to California, it thrives in USDA Zones 9-11. For those in colder climates, it can flourish indoors, bringing a touch of greenery and air purification to your living space. Provide it with well-drained soil and plenty of sunshine to witness its potential unfold. The Neem tree is well-known for its natural insecticidal properties and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine.
When planted outdoors in ideal conditions, a Neem tree can reach an impressive mature size of 30-50 feet. However, if you prefer to keep it as a container plant, regular pruning will help maintain a manageable size and shape.
