Genesis 21:33

And Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and called on the name of the Lord (Yahweh) there, the Eternal God (El Olam).
[The tamarisk tree grows slowly, taking 400 years to reach its full height. A tree is not planted for its own sake, but for future generations. This is a prophetic act by Abraham, saying that future generations will live here and cool themselves in the shade of this tree! The tamarisk grows in soil with a high salt content and is therefore the only tree that can grow around the Dead Sea. During the day, the tree secretes salt on its leaves, a process that requires a lot of water. During the night, the salt absorbs water, which then evaporates in the morning, providing a natural cooling effect. This is one reason why this tree is popular for planting in gardens. See also 1 Sam. 22:6; 31:13.]
