Eucalyptus pauciflora, known as Snow Gum, is a distinctive native Australian tree admired for its elegant twisted branches, multi-colored peeling bark, and delicate white flowers. Growing between 4 and 15 meters tall and spreading 3 to 10 meters wide, it creates a broad, irregular canopy that adds natural charm and structure to cooler landscapes.

Thriving in full sun to partial shade, Snow Gum is highly resilient—tolerating snow, frost, drought once established, and a variety of soil conditions. Its low-maintenance nature, combined with its striking bark and graceful form, makes it a superb choice for ornamental planting, windbreaks, and shade. It looks excellent in gardens or parks where both beauty and hardiness are valued, especially in climates with colder winters.

How to Plant Eucalyptus Pauciflora

How to Plant Eucalyptus pauciflora

Site Selection: While it's adaptable to various soil types, a well-draining soil is beneficial. Ideal for cooler, elevated areas given its snow tolerance.

Soil Preparation: Enrich the soil with compost or organic matter for better growth.

Hole Digging: Create a hole about twice the width of the root ball.

Planting: Set the tree in the hole, ensuring it stands straight. Fill in, tamp down the soil to expel air pockets, and water generously.

Root Ball Dimensions (Width × Depth) For Planting

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.
