Eucalyptus croajingolensis
Gippsland Peppermint is a tall eucalyptus tree native to forests of southeastern Australia, growing up to about 30 m. It is a forest tree rather than a garden or houseplant, so its care is mainly about giving it a warm, frost-free site with well-drained soil.
Eucalyptus croajingolensis, commonly known as the East Gippsland peppermint or Gippsland peppermint, is a species of tree that is endemic to southeastern Australia. It has rough, short-fibrous bark on the trunk and larger branches, sometimes smooth bark on the thinner branches, lance-shaped to curved adult leaves, flower buds in groups of nine or more, white flowers and hemispherical to cup-shaped fruit.
The east Gippsland peppermint grows in forest, often on alluvial soils and occurs from near Eden in New South Wales south to Bairnsdale in Victoria, mostly east of south of the Great Dividing Range.
