Eucalyptus torquata (Coral Gum)

Eucalyptus torquata is an evergreen tree with alternate gray- green leaves. The juvenile leaves are elliptical and the mature leaves are lanceolate. The flowers are large (up to 35 mm in diameter) and normally coral-pink but white, cream and red flowered plants are known.

Coral Gum is commonly cultivated for small gardens and for use as a street tree, especially in arid areas.
