This tree is like a smaller form of E. salmonophloia, only reaching about 25' tall and wide. This plant is great for smaller spaces where other Eucalyptus cannot be used. Gimlet is especially tolerant of heavy soils, as long as they are not overwatered. Narrow shiny green leaves, smooth red-brown bark. Slow growing. Suitable for heavy clay soils but will suffer if overwaterd.

hardy to 20f
