A beautiful white barked eucalyptus which forms a lignotuber, that woody swelling of the root crown that stores carbohydrates and many buds in case disaster strikes the upper portions of the tree (fire, cold, crazed lawnmowers, etc.). This is especially helpful for those of us growing eucalyptus in climates where severe winter frost can knock back the more tender species to the roots every decade or so. Grows to a moderate size at a steady clip.
