Eucalyptus johnstonii
Also called Tasmanian Yellow Gum, Brown Gum, Yellow Gum, Tamanian Yellow Gum
Johnston's gum is a medium to tall forest tree from south-eastern Tasmania, growing 40 to 50 m with smooth yellow to greenish bark. It is a large landscape tree rather than a garden or houseplant, so it needs space and cool, open conditions to thrive.
Eucalyptus johnstonii, commonly known as Tasmanian yellow gum, is a species of medium-sized to tall tree endemic to Tasmania. It has smooth yellow to greenish bark, lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of three, white flowers and hemispherical or bell-shaped fruit.
Tasmanian yellow gum grows in tall forest on mountains and plateaus in south-eastern Tasmania including on Mount Wellington, Bruny Island, and the Tasman Peninsula.
