User's notes
Retains a dark, shaggy base of trunk, extending up the tree and on some more mature branches. Forked trunk. Have counted up to seven buds on one umbel(?) but seems to drop them quickly. Buds and gumnuts quite small, a few millimetres. Flowers creamy in colour. Adult leaves alternate. Prone to insect attack. Most likely planted.

Buds, fruit and leaves like a brittle gum, but bark is not. Given planted then best to just list as Eucalyptus sp.
