Significant sighting

Tapirlord noted:
6 Jan 2023

This Eucalypt is restricted to the Tinderries, several sites in Victoria & Blue gum hill in the ACT. Our local population consists of only around 100 trees, though thankfully few have perished in the 19/20 fire & many seedling are emerging. Please keep your eyes out for this distinctive eucalypt on higher altitude granitic slopes.

User's notes

I think there are about 100 mature & adolescent trees on the north facing slope of blue gum hill. This is the only known ACT population of this eucalypt so the low numbers are concerning. There are maybe 100 sapling coming up after the fire, time will tell how many of them mature
