Snow Gum

The Snow Gum is one of Australias most beautifully iconic trees, growing into a gnarled, characterful frame between 6 and 15 meters tall. It is world-famous for its extraordinarily smooth, white-to-light-grey bark that displays stunning, bright yellow and olive-green streaks after rain, complemented by thick, leathery glossy green leaves. It is completely unfazed by heavy winter frost and freezing winds, serving as an exceptional structural feature or shelterbelt tree.
