Eucalyptus
Edna
Walling® Little Snowman™
A
small slender tree (4 - 7 metres x 3 - 4 metres) with a
smooth creamy white trunk, an open pendulous canopy of grey
green leaves, and masses of cream, nectar-rich blossoms
from spring to summer, attractive to honeyeaters, native bees, moths and butterflies. Thrives in cold temperate to sub
tropical climates, from coastal to alpine regions. Very
frost hardy. It loves full sun or light shade, and grows
best in well drained clay loams or moist sandy soils, neutral
to slightly acid pH.
Uses:
perfect for small gardens or streetscapes, either planted
singly or in copses, and is especially lovely when under-planted
with simple grasses. Consider planting a small avenue of these beautiful small trees where
space and scale permits.
Maintenance:
requires little or no shaping, may be lightly fertilized
with low phosphorus fertilizer if necessary.
