Botanical name D? No idea,we colloquially call them white gums,some call them candlebark gums.Nearly all of our native hardwoods shed their bark and not their leaves..sort of like the green hulk changing clothes. Prob tech wise Eucalyptus rubida We have ribbon gums,they will shed in long ribbons; and they will make a 3' deep carpet around the tree and also the tree branches are often festooned with the long ribbons as well. Lemon gums have the most amazing citrus smell when you crush the leaves. Scribbly Gums have insect scribbles up and down on the bark The narrow leaf peppermint is a real favourite,there are times when after a shower on a hot day they release the incredible peppermint scent that is almost intoxicating. There are a lot of them. And then we Have the rare DBE`s aka Drop Bear Eucy`s man they are fucking dangerous to walk under too. Things are different in Aus D,perhaps you should come on down to check us out. I always wanted to go visit Canucksville. |
