Tree | Eucalyptus gregsoniana Wolgan, Dwarf Mallee Snow Gum |
Description | This is a compact-growing, multi-branched snow gum capable of tolerating very cold conditions once established. We grow this specimen with a single trunk but naturally it is a multi-stemmed mallee with a weeping habit. The young stems are burgundy-red in colour. Thick, leathery, blue-green foliage contrasts well with these red coloured stems and smooth white to grey coloured bark which peels off in ribbons. This variety is summer flowering, producing fluffy white clusters of flowers. |

Uses | Great as a streetscape tree or feature tree in a small to large garden. White flowers appear late in the year around November, attracting and providing food for native birds and beneficial insects. |
