Eucalyptus approximans

An attractive small, often multistemmed tree, reaching no more than 6m (20ft) in height when mature. The bark is white, grey or pinkish-brown and sheds in strips on the upper branches. Bears long, slightly sickle-shaped, glossy green leaves, that are red along with the stems when young. Tolerant of pruning and may therefore be grown in containers, unlike other larger growing members of the genus.
