It is found in a wide range of environments and is primarily grown for its pods that contain both a sweet pulp and valuable seeds. Parkia can grow into a large tree indeed with many spreading branches. The leaves are fine and feathery. The inflorescence, which happens in December-January is similar to a Badminton Ball hanging at the tip of a long thick stalk - the reason for its common name. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the winter season, 1  - 2 ft branches, hanging from the leaf axil, bear rust coloured bead-like flower heads, which gradually gain size of a tennis ball - and the \"flowers\" bloom to spectacular white electric bulbs! The flowers in round white heads are prominent, hence the native name 'Chendul' , or ball. Leaves bipinnate with very numerous leaflets; rachis of leaf downy, 1 ft. of more long; pinnae 20-30 pair, 60 to 100 pairs leaflets, rigid, 1\/4 in. long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a standing tree, locust bean may have a positive effect on the yield of other nearby crops.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnvironment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eChanduphal prefers full sunlight and moderate watering.
