This small, multi-stemmed tree grows at a moderate rate to 20' x 20'. It forms a dense canopy of delicate, wispy leaves. The bark peels off in thin, dark brown strips to reveal a light green trunk beneath. A nice smaller alternative Eucalyptus. Makes a good patio tree. Blends well with other desert plantings. It will tolerate poor drainage. Accepts full or reflected sun. Native to Australia.

Frost tolerant to 20 F.
