PLANT PROFILE

Eucalyptus camaldulensis, commonly known as the River Red Gum, is a majestic Australian native tree admired for its smooth, multi-colored bark and vibrant green lance-shaped leaves. Reaching heights of 20–30 meters with a broad-spreading crown, this tree is an iconic feature along rivers and waterways, playing a crucial role in stabilizing banks and supporting native wildlife.

Its impressive drought tolerance and adaptability to varied soils make it an excellent, low-maintenance choice for Australian gardens and large landscapes. The River Red Gum not only provides generous shade but also attracts native birds, enhancing biodiversity.

Beyond its environmental and aesthetic value, this tree’s dense, durable wood is prized for furniture and firewood. It looks excellent when planted in open spaces where its natural, sweeping form can be fully appreciated, bringing authentic Australian character and enduring presence to any outdoor setting.

    How to Plant Eucalyptus camaldulensis

    Site Selection: Naturally found along riverbanks and floodplains, it prefers moist, well-drained soils but can adapt to various conditions.

    Soil Preparation: While it thrives in natural soils, adding organic compost can aid initial growth.

    Hole Digging: Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball in width and depth.

    Planting: Position the tree in the hole, ensuring it stands upright. Fill the surrounding space with soil and water generously.

    Use this as a reference when digging your planting hole. We recommend digging at least 10% wider than the dimensions below to encourage strong root development.
