DESCRIPTION
A beautiful, cold-hardy eucalyptus with smooth white, grey, and cream mottled bark and glossy green leaves. One of the most cold-tolerant eucalypts, found naturally in the Australian Alps. The twisting trunk and colourful bark make it a stunning specimen tree. White flowers in spring attract many native pollinators.
