Hi there,
I have never heard of a knoppies doringboom , and can't find anything on the internet......

Did a little internet searching - little difficult to find this. Hope this is the right one. Most sites are in a foreign language.

Knoppiesdoring / Acacia Nigrescens / Knob Thorn

This a bit of information for now. I have linked the websites I found. I will see if I can find some more indepth info about growing requirements later.

Can't really find a whole lot on this tree right now.

The Knobthorn Tree is indiginous to Africa. Requires direct sun and grows best in USDA zones 8-10.

Hopefully someone else with more resources and experience will be able to find something more now that they have the latin name Acacia Nigrescens

Hi Chrisscha!

Welcome to the forum...so glad you could join us!

It would really help us to help you if you could share a few photos of your tree such as a photo of the whole tree, then say a close up of the leaves, bark and branches if possible. I've never heard of this one before either and I'm quite intrigued!

Aklister71 (aka: Angie) is our computer research guru so, if anyone can find it Angie probably can.

It would be great if you could pop over to the "名媛直播 Cafe" section of the forum, scroll down to and click on the "Introduce Yourself" topic and share a bit about yourself. Looking forward to seeing those photos!

Hi Angie!

Wow! Those are a couple of great links! What a wonderful skill you have. Thanks so much for sharing!

I have a feeling she is Afrikaans? That name is Afrikaans so it makes sense that it is indiginous to a part of Africa. I really dont know much about that particular tree, however it would probably require the same as a normal Acacia such as well draining soil, lots of sun light but do not leave it in the sun all day, it will need to be in a place that it gets about 3 hours of sun and the rest of the day, shade. Water it when it needs to be watered at first by monitoring the soil moisture levels, after a while you will learn how often you need to water the tree because any tree is different because of the species and/ or the soil mixture! I have an Acacia that was very sick but i stuck to these guidelines and it has growing wild now! Goodluck!

it is always a pleasure to put my skills to use and help ya'll. This is an excellent community. I look forward to being a permanent member, maybe meeting some of you if I ever get to a 名媛直播 Convention.
