Introducing the Eucalyptus nitens Shining Gum, also known as a tall to very tall forest tree native to Victoria and eastern New South Wales, Australia. This species grows up to 60m - with occasional heights of 90m - and has bark that is persistent on the lower trunk, grey to grey-brown, fibrous-flaky, smooth above, white, grey or yellow, shedding in long ribbons. The shining gum is commonly used in general construction and has begun to be used in furniture where its discolourations make a unique feature. This popular species also works well as an ornamental, tolerating damp conditions better than most Eucalypts.
