- With its glaucous, rounded, wonderfully fragrant leaves and peeling cream bark, Eucalyptus gunnii (also known as the cider gum tree) is among the very best ornamental trees.
- This plant has been trained as a mini standard (a clear-stemmed tree topped with a bushy head of foliage) to be grown either in the open ground or a large container.
- Alongside its fantastic evergreen foliage, this tree also produces dainty white flower clusters during the summer.
- While this tree can reach an ultimate height of six metres or so left unpruned, most people will keep it nice and compact (at around two metres tall).
- A recipient of the RHS's Award of Garden Merit, this plant has been proven to perform well in British gardens.
