Eucalyptus rudis rudis (Eucalyptus rudis rudis)

Description

It is a medium-sized tree that typically grows to a height of 5 to 20 metres (16 to 66 ft). The trunk is usually short and has a poor form with a wide-spreading crown. It has rough, dark and light grey box-style bark; however, north of Perth it intergrades with Eucalyptus camaldulensis var. obtusa so the bark may be smooth and very similar to Eucalyptus camaldulensis. Leaves are stalked, alternate, ovate to orbicular 12 x 7 cm, slightly discolourous and dull grey-green. White flowers appear in winter to late spring between the months of July to September.
