- Dwarf tree variety to 150cm
- Australian Native
- Also known as 'Illyarrie'
Australian native mallee eucalyptus tree to 150cm. Open habit with creamy coloured smooth trunk and distinctive red capped flower buds which open to large bright yellowy-green flowers in summer and autumn. This hardy Western Australian native plant is low maintenance and tolerant of coastal locations, drought and poor quality sandy soils. Great for attracting native birds and bees. Also known as "Illyarrie", "Helmet nut gum" or "Ilyari".
Note: Seeds of many native plants are dormant and will not germinate until ideal environmental conditions are met. Follow instructions for pre-treatment and sowing, and be patient; some wild harvested seeds can take much longer to germinate than expected.
