Learn About Your New Eucalyptus Grandis
Eucalyptus grandis (Flooded Gum) is a tall, fast-growing Australian native tree widely valued for its clean white trunk, upright form, and adaptability to high-rainfall regions. This iconic hardwood species reaches heights of 30–50 metres in ideal conditions and is best suited to large-scale landscapes, revegetation projects, and timber production sites where fast canopy development and bold vertical presence are needed.
Eucalyptus grandis (Flooded Gum) features a smooth, powdery white trunk that sheds seasonally to reveal soft grey or pink tones beneath, offering year-round interest. Its long, lance-shaped green leaves create a lightly filtered canopy, making it suitable for habitat support, wind protection, and shade in open rural settings.
Flowering in summer, this species produces clusters of small white flowers that attract bees and native pollinators, increasing biodiversity value. It thrives in deep, fertile, well-drained soils, especially in moist environments along creeks, gullies, and floodplains.
Due to its size and water requirements, Eucalyptus grandis (Flooded Gum) is not recommended for confined or dry landscapes. However, for rural properties, forestry, erosion control, or carbon planting projects, it remains one of the best-performing native species available.
