Tasmanian Blue Gum (Eucalyptus Globulus)
Eucalyptus is a Myrtaceae tree and shrub genus with over 700 species. Members of the genus dominate Australia’s tree flora, but they’ve been planted worldwide for 150 years and have been successful as exotics due to their fast growth, ability to adapt to degraded, acidic, and dry soils, prolific seed dispersal, and pest resistance.
