Discover the majestic Eucalyptus microcorys, commonly known as Australian Tallowwood, a species that stands tall in the rich landscapes of eastern Australia. Native to the fertile regions of New South Wales and southern Queensland, this impressive tree reaches heights of 130 to 195 ft, occasionally towering to 230 ft. It is distinguished by its rough, fibrous bark that exudes a rustic charm, and its glossy green, lance-shaped leaves that add a touch of elegance to any environment.

Tallowwood blooms from spring to summer, showcasing clusters of seven to nine white to lemon-yellow flowers, followed by woody, conical fruit. Its robust wood, noted for both light and heavy construction, is a testament to the tree's resilience and utility, making it ideal for posts, poles, and railroad ties. First described in 1860 by Ferdinand von Mueller, this tree's legacy continues, thriving particularly in open forests, rainforest margins, and on the fertile slopes and valleys of its native habitat. Embrace this icon of natural beauty and practicality, perfect for enhancing any botanical collection or environmental project.
