Corymbia arafurica is a eucalypt-type tree from the Top End of the Northern Territory, growing to about 15 m with smooth powdery bark and glossy lance-shaped leaves. It is best grown in a warm, frost-free, sunny spot with well-drained soil, as it is naturally found near watercourses and coastal headlands in the wet-dry tropics.
