Description

This Eucalyptus variety is usually an upright grower, slender and open, reaching heights of 20'-80'. It is fairly fast growing. It sheds bark annually, with the result being a satin smooth, white trunk and sometimes dappled gray. Long, gray green leaves have sickle shape. Eucalyptus varieties are highly combustible.

Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.
