Simmondsia chinensis, commonly known as Jojoba, is a hardy, long-lived, and drought-resistant, evergreen perennial shrub known for the valuable liquid wax (oil) produced by its nut-like fruit. It is dioecious, needing separate male and female plants for fruit/nut production. Excellent as a screen, hedge, or for erosion control/bank stabilization. Resistant to most pests and diseases. Requires very well-drained, sandy, or rocky soil. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to 15°F, with foliage damage occurring in the low 20s.
