  • Description

  • Notes

Ghost gum is one of the moderately-sized Eucalyptus species, eventually reaching 30-60' tall by 15-30' wide. Tree form can vary from a shorter, multi-trunk specimen to a narrow, single-trunk tree. Plants are somewhat frost tender(20f), but tolerate full sun, reflected heat, neglect, and a wide range of soil types. Has a semi weeping habit and produces little litter.
