Brittle Gum

The Brittle Gum is an exceptionally beautiful, medium-sized native tree growing 10 to 15 meters high, world-renowned for its strikingly smooth, powdery-white trunk that transforms dramatically into a brilliant, glowing pink-to-red color during late summer. It forms a lovely, open canopy of narrow green leaves and produces small white flowers in spring. It is a premier choice for adding a bright, architectural sculptural presence to large gardens, parks, or acreage fence lines.
