Eucalyptus × alpina
Grampians gum is a eucalyptus that grows as a mallee shrub or small tree, native only to the Grampians in Victoria, Australia. It is a hardy, sun-loving tree that needs good drainage and suits dry, open gardens rather than indoor growing.
Eucalyptus × alpina, commonly known as Grampians gum, is a mallee or small tree that is endemic to the Grampians in Victoria, Australia. It has fibrous grey bark near its base and smooth greyish bark higher up. The leaves are broadly lance-shaped to egg-shaped and the plant has very warty buds and fruit. There is disagreement about its name, the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria referring to it as the Mt Abrupt stringybark.
Grampians gum mostly grows in pure stands on the higher parts of the Grampians National Park.
