Dwarf yellow box 200MM

Eucalyptus leucoxylon 'Euky Dwarf'

I am Dwarf yellow box. My family originated from South Australian and Victoria.

Habit Tree - Fast Growing
Plant family Myrtaceae
I am a very hardy elegant small growing Eucalypt with smooth bark. My bright red flowers are prolific in spring but I can also bloom sporadically at any time of year. Bird and insects are attracted to my flowers and canopy which creates important habitat. I am suited to suburban gardens and street plantings. Hardy I tolerate frost and dry conditions once established.
