Angophora costata, or Smooth-barked Apple, is a large tree with a wide spreading canopy. The pink to pale trunk is often gnarled and crooked, with flushes of rust-coloured bark. The old bark is shed in spring in large flakes with the new salmon-pink bark turning to pale grey before the next shedding. The flowers are a showy white, produced in large bunches from December to January. The leaves are dark green, lance-shaped, and are borne opposite each other on the stem.
