Ziziphus cambodiana is a deciduous thorny shrub or climbing vine, 2 to 6 m tall, native to seasonally dry forest edges in Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and northern Thailand. It is grown mainly for local use (charcoal, traditional medicine) rather than as an ornamental, so care guidance is limited.
Ziziphus cambodiana (Khmer: អង្គ្រង, angkrong) is a deciduous thorny shrub, or vine, some 2–6 m tall, found growing in secondary undergrowth in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam,
