{"product_id":"corymbia-eximia-nana","title":"Corymbia eximia 'Nana'","description":"\u003cp\u003eCorymbia eximia 'Nana' is the dwarf form of the Yellow Bloodwood, a small evergreen native tree with a rounded, densely held canopy. The broad blue-green leaves sit above pale, flaky bark, and clusters of creamy white flowers open through spring. Growth is naturally compact, so the tree keeps its shape without much intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt grows at roughly 40 to 60 centimetres a year in full sun to part shade, and prefers soil that drains freely. Once established it handles dry spells well and copes with light to moderate frost, which suits warm temperate, subtropical and inland districts. Maintenance comes down to occasional shaping and a spring feed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCouncils and developers use it as a street tree under powerlines, in car park islands and in median strips where a full sized bloodwood would never fit. It also works as a single feature in a courtyard, or as a shade tree on a rural block. Small footprint, genuine canopy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin:44px 0 16px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:14px;font-weight:500;letter-spacing:1.5px;margin:0 0 8px;padding-top:32px;border-top:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);text-transform:uppercase;color:currentColor;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 24px;color:currentColor;opacity:0.65;font-size:14px;font-style:italic;\"\u003eAbout Corymbia eximia 'Nana'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eWhat is Corymbia eximia 'Nana'?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eIt is a dwarf selection of the Yellow Bloodwood, a small evergreen Australian native tree in the Myrtaceae family. It carries broad blue-green foliage on a rounded, dense canopy, with creamy white flowers through spring that bring in honeyeaters and lorikeets. The pale flaky bark gives it interest through the rest of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eHow big does Corymbia eximia 'Nana' grow?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eExpect about 4 to 6 metres in height with a canopy spread of 3 to 4 metres in an average garden. That is roughly a third of the size of the standard Yellow Bloodwood, which can pass 15 metres. Final height depends on soil depth and water, with trees on shallow dry sites staying at the lower end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eHow fast does it grow?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eAround 40 to 60 centimetres a year once the root system is away, which is moderate for a native tree. The first two summers set the pace, so deep watering through that period pays off later. Growth slows as the tree nears mature height, and the canopy thickens rather than continuing to climb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eDoes it need sun or shade?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eFull sun is best and gives the heaviest flowering and the densest canopy. It will grow in part shade, but the crown opens up and flower numbers drop away. Avoid planting it on the south side of a tall building or under an established canopy where it will only ever get an hour or two of direct light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eIs it frost tolerant?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eYes. Once established it handles light to moderate frost, which covers most temperate and inland districts. Young trees are more exposed, so protect them through the first winter or two with frost cloth or a sheltered position. It also takes heat and dry conditions, making it a dependable choice for inland gardens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eHow far apart should I plant it for an avenue?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eSpace trees 3 metres apart for an even avenue where the canopies just meet, or 3 to 4 metres apart where each tree is meant to stand alone and show its full form. On narrow verges stick to the wider spacing so root plates and canopies are not competing with each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eHow do I care for Corymbia eximia 'Nana'?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eWater deeply once or twice a week through the first two summers, then only in long dry spells. Mulch out to the drip line but keep it clear of the trunk. A low phosphorus native fertiliser in early spring is enough. Prune lightly after flowering to lift the crown or remove crossing branches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Evergreen Trees Direct","offers":[{"title":"30\/33cm","offer_id":44496235987143,"sku":"COREXINAN30CM\/33CM","price":190.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"40cm\/45L","offer_id":43498761617607,"sku":"COREXINAN40cm\/45L","price":270.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/4945\/4279\/files\/CorymbiaEximanana40cm_45L_d2a0d533-4dcd-4ce7-8e6d-24665fe55371.png?v=1716719662","url":"https:\/\/www.evergreentrees.com.au\/products\/corymbia-eximia-nana","provider":"Evergreen Trees Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
