Eucalyptus robusta – Swamp Mahogany

Size: 100L
Sale price$555.00

Eucalyptus robusta, known as Swamp Mahogany, is a fast-growing and hardy Australian native tree perfectly suited for wetter or coastal environments. Reaching heights of 15–25 meters with a broad 8–12 meter canopy, it offers dense, glossy evergreen foliage and creamy-white flowers from winter to spring that attract pollinators and support local wildlife.

Its remarkable tolerance to waterlogged, clay, and acidic soils makes it a dependable choice for challenging sites such as wetlands and coastal buffers. Thriving in full sun and withstanding light frost and coastal exposure, Swamp Mahogany requires low maintenance and moderate to high moisture, especially during establishment.

This tree looks excellent in landscapes where resilience meets natural beauty — ideal for shelterbelts, windbreaks, feature planting, and habitat restoration. If you want a reliable, fast-growing tree that enhances biodiversity while providing year-round shade and structure, Eucalyptus robusta is a standout performer.
