Eucalyptus mannifera, commonly known as Brittle Gum, is a well-proportioned, sometimes multi-stemmed tree with a smooth white trunk mottled with patches of grey. The trunk changes to a pink colour in late spring or summer - a delightful colouring that is more pronounced when the tree is wet after summer rains. The eucalypt flowers are white and appear at various times of the year - depending on the climate. Brittle Gum is a suitable Australian native for parks and gardens with some open space. Great for habitat for native birds and insects.
