Sugar Gum

The Sugar Gum is a fast-growing, tall native timber tree that easily surpasses 3 meters, frequently reaching 15 to 30 meters in height. It features a clean, straight trunk with beautiful, smooth bark that sheds in colorful patches of yellow, orange, and grey, topped with a high, dense canopy of glossy green leaves that have a pale underside. It is exceptionally drought-hardy and wind-resistant, heavily used across larger properties to establish massive shelterbelts and rural windbreaks.
