Eucalyptus Camaldulensis, River Red Gum

Eucalyptus camaldulensis, commonly known as River Red Gum, is a majestic and iconic tree native to Australia. With a striking reddish-brown bark and a towering height of up to 30 meters, it dominates the landscape along rivers and floodplains. Its lance-shaped leaves are a silvery-green hue, and its white flowers bloom in clusters, attracting a myriad of wildlife, including birds and insects. The tree's deep root system efficiently extracts water from the soil, making it drought-tolerant and vital for preserving watercourses.

Historically significant to indigenous communities, the River Red Gum continues to provide habitat, shade, and shelter for various species, contributing to biodiversity. Despite facing threats from habitat loss, this remarkable eucalyptus species remains a symbol of resilience and natural beauty.
