The diameter of the mature tree is generally about 20 centimeters, because if it is thicker, it may have a hollow heart, which makes it difficult to use it. As the saying goes: It's too long. The origin is Africa, but this kind of small-leaf sandalwood also grows in India, and very few grow in our country.
