Learn About Your New Eucalyptus cladocalyx 'Nana' (Dwarf Sugar Gum)
Eucalyptus cladocalyx 'Nana' (Dwarf Sugar Gum) is a compact, evergreen Australian native known for its dense rounded canopy, decorative bark, and outstanding resilience in dry, exposed landscapes. Reaching 8–10 metres high and 4–6 metres wide, this medium-sized tree offers reliable structure and shade in streetscapes, parks, urban gardens, and rural plantings.
The foliage of Eucalyptus cladocalyx 'Nana' (Dwarf Sugar Gum) is glossy dark green with a soft pale underside, creating year-round contrast and softness in the landscape. Its smooth bark, marked with streaks of grey, yellow, and orange, adds seasonal texture and standout visual character.
From late spring through summer, this cultivar produces generous clusters of creamy-white flowers that attract birds, bees, and other native pollinators. Its form and flowering make it a highly valued feature tree in both formal and naturalistic designs.
Exceptionally drought-tolerant, wind-resistant, and adaptable to a wide range of soils, Eucalyptus cladocalyx 'Nana' (Dwarf Sugar Gum) thrives in full sun and is ideal for coastal gardens, dry inland regions, and biodiverse planting projects. It requires minimal maintenance once established and performs well under pressure from heat and poor soils.
