Eucalyptus blakelyi

Eucalyptus blakelyi, or Blakely’s Red Gum, is a medium to tall Australian native tree known for its smooth, patchy bark in tones of cream, grey, and red, and soft, lance-shaped foliage. It typically grows up to 20 metres in height with an upright, spreading canopy, making it suitable for rural properties, large gardens, and habitat planting.

This species produces clusters of white flowers in summer, attracting birds, bees, and other pollinators. Highly adaptable, it thrives in full sun with well-drained soil, and offers strong drought and frost tolerance once established.

They look excellent when planted in rows for windbreaks or avenues, or spaced individually as shade trees in open landscapes. Eucalyptus blakelyi is a reliable choice for revegetation, carbon offset, or biodiversity-focused planting in inland and temperate climates.
