It can be deciduous or evergreen depending upon the climate. It is well adapted to drought conditions and have a rapidly developing taproot system. It is known for its ability to withstand adverse conditions, such as salinity, drought and waterlogging.
The species varies widely in height, from a shrub 2m tall to a tree 10m to 12m tall with a trunk diameter of about 30 cm. Ber tree may be erect or wide-spreading, with drooping thorny branches. Fruit is eaten fresh or dried and are used as a condiment. Also used for candy making and pickling. The fruit is a good source of carotene, vitamins A and C, and fatty oils. A refreshing drink is prepared by macerating fruits in water.
In India, the leaves are also gathered to feed tasar silkworms; tasar silk, highly prized, is the only silk commercially exploited in the tropics. Z. mauritiana produces excellent firewood and good charcoal.

It is also suitable for the production of veneer and plywood. The bark, including the root bark, has served in tanning and yields brown and grey or reddish dyes.
