Eucalyptus haemanstoma is the most ornamental of all the eucalyptus, as it branches out into multiple, twisted trunks which are silvery-white and decorated with fine wiggly patterns made by the burrowing larvae of tiny moths. It has nectar-rich, white blossoms appearing from spring through to autumn. This attractive tree is a lovely addition to native gardens, as a shade or feature tree. Leaves eaten by koalas!
