Pterocarpus santalinus (Telugu: ?????????? (raktachandana), (Tamil: ???????????????? (ciwappuccantanam); Red Sanders or Red Sandalwood) is a species of Pterocarpus native to India.[1] It is only found in south India in Kadapa, Chittoor, mostly in the hilly region of Nepal, in Pakistan and in Sri Lanka.[2] [3][4]. In India sandalwood is one main and lucrative market for smugglers as a high price is paid for this wood in China. Since, the exporting of sandlewood in India, the underground market is growing and there are a number of arrests every year of those trying to smuggle this wood to China.
It is a light-demanding small tree growing to 8 m tall with a trunk *0–**0 cm diameter. It is fast-growing when young, reaching 5 m tall in three years even on degraded soils. It is not frost tolerant, being killed by temperatures of −1 °C. The leaves are alternate, 3–9 cm long, trifoliate with three leaflets. The flowers are produced in short racemes. The fruit is a pod 6–9 cm long containing one or two seeds.[5][6][7]
