Eucalyptus Punctata (Grey Gum)

Eucalyptus Punctata (Grey Gum) is a hardy Australian native tree known for its distinctive smooth, patchy bark that sheds in irregular flakes, revealing shades of grey, orange, and pink. This medium to large tree is highly valued for its durability, adaptability, and its ability to attract native wildlife, including birds, bees, and koalas. Its dark green, lance-shaped leaves create a dense canopy, providing excellent shade and shelter.

During summer, Eucalyptus Punctata (Grey Gum) produces clusters of creamy-white flowers that enhance its ornamental appeal. It thrives in a range of soil types, from sandy to clay, and is drought-tolerant once established. Commonly used for shade, windbreaks, and reforestation projects, this resilient species is well-suited for large gardens, parks, and rural landscapes.
