Spinifex thrives on the poorest, most arid soils Australia has to offer. It is Spinifex that has prevented our deserts from becoming a Sahara-like world of bare, shifting sand.Spinifex roots go down a long way: approximately 3 metres. Generally the roots develop from the same nodes as the shoots so that each shoot has its own personal water supply.The spiky leaves contain a lot of silica which makes them stiff and rigid. Spinifex is tough and indigestible to most animals except termites.esert Aboriginal people collect certain species of Spinifex and bash it with a stick on a clean surface to begin the extraction of resin which occurs at the base of the stems. The chaff is heated with a fire stick causing the resin to melt.
