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.
