Elaeocarpus Eumundi, known as Eumundi Quandong or Smooth-leaved Quandong, is an elegant evergreen native tree cherished for its glossy dark green leaves and gracefully drooping branches. With a manageable size of 8–10 meters tall and 3–5 meters wide, it fits beautifully into gardens where a low-maintenance yet visually striking feature is desired.

This tree adds seasonal charm with delicate white fringed flowers in summer and occasional bright blue fruits that attract native wildlife, enhancing biodiversity. Its compact upright form and resilience to light frost and urban pollution make it a reliable choice for street planting, shade, or ornamental use.

Elaeocarpus Eumundi looks excellent as a refined focal point or as part of a mixed planting scheme, offering year-round greenery and subtle seasonal interest. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soils, though it tolerates occasional wet conditions, making it adaptable to various garden environments.
