Eucalyptus Racemosa (Scribbly Gum) is a distinctive Australian native tree known for its smooth, pale bark featuring unique ‘scribbles’ created by insect larvae. This medium-sized tree has an elegant, upright form with a spreading canopy of narrow, grey-green leaves. It is a hardy species that thrives in well-draining soils and is well-suited for parks, large gardens, and revegetation projects.
During summer, Eucalyptus Racemosa (Scribbly Gum) produces clusters of small, creamy-white flowers that attract bees, birds, and other pollinators. Highly drought-tolerant and adaptable to various conditions, this low-maintenance tree is ideal for creating shade and adding an iconic Australian touch to landscapes.
