Eucalyptus Leucoxylon 'Scarlet'

‘Scarlet’ is a small to medium tree, 8 metres heigh by 4 metres wide, and can tolerate a range of conditions, performing best under full sun in well-drained soil.  It has a rounded open canopy making it a perfect specimen or shade tree. An outstanding flowering period from autumn to spring makes ‘Scarlet’ a bird attracting winter wonder and a perfect addition to any native garden.
