Eucalyptus orgadophila
Also called Gum Top Box, Gum Topped Box
Mountain coolibah is a medium-sized eucalypt tree of eastern Queensland, reaching 15 to 20 m, usually found in dry woodland on ridges and hills. It is a native tree best suited to open, sunny sites with good drainage rather than a typical garden or houseplant.
Eucalyptus orgadophila, commonly known as mountain coolibah, is a species of medium-sized tree that is endemic to Queensland. It has rough, fibrous or flaky bark on the lower trunk, smooth white to greyish above, lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white flowers and cup-shaped to barrel-shaped fruit.
Mountain coolibah grows in woodland, often in pure stand, on ridges and hills in eastern Queensland, from south of the Cape York Peninsula to near Warwick.
