User's notes
5 planted Eucalyptus around the Hackett water tank with fine grey coloured box bark. I collected samples of the branchlets of three trees and took photos of the flowers / buds at home. These photos are from the one tree east of the water tank and west of the track. I took the photos of the branchlets at home. I think they demonstrate the variation reg length & bent of buds and shape, ridges of buds, presence or absence and degrees glaucousness. The variations occur in one tree, sometimes even on one branchlet. My tentative identification is Euc. albens; further suggestions are Eucalyptus moluccana or hybrid between the two species.
