Eucalyptus apothalassica is a eucalyptus tree native to dry woodland on sandstone soils in northern New South Wales and south-east Queensland, Australia, reaching about 20 metres. It is a landscape and woodland tree rather than a common garden or houseplant, so care is mainly about suiting its dry, well-drained native conditions.
