Eucalyptus burracoppinensis
Burracoppin mallee is a drought-tolerant eucalypt from the sandplains of Western Australia's wheatbelt, usually grown as a multi-stemmed shrub or small tree. Its key to success is full sun, very well-drained sandy soil, and minimal watering once established.
Eucalyptus burracoppinensis, commonly known as Burracoppin mallee is a mallee that is endemic to Western Australia. It has smooth bark, except for a short "stocking" of loose rough bark at the base, lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds arranged in groups of three, white flowers and top-shaped fruit.
This eucalypt is a slow growing, drought tolerant mallee sold as an ornamental, hedge, shelterbelt and windbreak that can grow in low rainfall areas.
Burracoppin mallee is found on sandplains in scattered areas of the central and eastern wheatbelt region between Ballidu, Bullfinch, Kondinin and Marvel Loch.
