Eucalyptus gregsoniana, commonly known as Wolgan Snow Gum, is a captivating evergreen tree celebrated for its compact size, ornamental bark, and attractive foliage. This tree belongs to the Myrtaceae family and is prized for its ornamental qualities, making it a popular choice for gardens, landscapes, and as a unique addition to the Eucalyptus genus.

Common Name: Wolgan Snow Gum
Mature Height (meters): Typically grows to a height of 6-12 meters, forming a compact and well-rounded canopy.
Mature Width (meters): Spreads to approximately 3-6 meters, creating a dense and attractive crown.
Spacing: Plant with adequate spacing to allow for the tree's mature size and to showcase its compact and ornamental form.
Leaves: The leaves of Eucalyptus gregsoniana are small, lance-shaped, and gray-green in color, providing year-round interest with their attractive foliage.
Bark: The bark of this tree is a true highlight, with its smooth, creamy-white to gray-brown surface that peels away in ribbons, revealing shades of pink, orange, and green underneath. This ornamental bark adds visual interest and uniqueness.
Flowers: Inconspicuous white flowers may appear in clusters during the growing season, adding subtle charm to the tree. However, it is primarily grown for its bark and foliage.
Form/Habit: Wolgan Snow Gum has a naturally compact and rounded growth habit, making it an excellent choice for small gardens, landscapes, and as a specimen tree.
Uses: Ideal as a specimen tree in gardens and landscapes, where its ornamental bark, attractive foliage, and compact size can be showcased. It is also suitable for urban environments due to its manageable size.
Sun: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, with the best bark coloration occurring in full sun.
Maintenance: Low maintenance; minimal pruning is required to maintain its natural form, and dead or diseased branches can be removed as needed.
Water Requirement: While it prefers consistent moisture, it can withstand periods of drought once established, making it a hardy and water-efficient choice.
