Image of Brittle Gum

A handsome tall tree local to the Canberra region and used commonly as a street and landscape tree. Its smooth milky white trunk and fine foliage make it a standout tree for large areas. Hugely adaptable, hardy and fast-growing, this tree provides shelter for shady understorey plants and homes for wildlife. As it is a large, vigorous tree it is not suitable for small gardens, but makes a stunning large shade tree for open spaces, gardens and parks.
