User's notes

I suspect this is the only instance of this species in the Dryandra Street Woodland. I could find no buds or fruit. The last image is looking up, to demonstrate that the rough bark nearly reaches the end of the branches. Apart from the silver colour and the arrangement of the leaves the other characteristic seems to be a rather chaotic arrangement of branches.

I've called it E. cinerea based on the foliage and the bark. The species is naturalised on the lower slopes of Bruce Ridge not too far away. It's not considered native to the ACT.

Thanks, Rosemary.
Should it be removed?

Would be sensible.
