Eucalyptus pulverulenta
Also called Silver-leaved Mountain Gum, Powdered Gum, Ironbark, Silver Gum
Eucalyptus pulverulenta, commonly known as silver-leaved mountain gum, is a species of straggly tree or mallee that is endemic to southern New South Wales. It has smooth bark, egg-shaped, heart-shaped or round, sessile leaves arranged in opposite pairs, flower buds in groups of three, white flowers and cup-shaped to cylindrical fruit.
A cultivar known as 'Baby Blue' is a dwarf form of E. pulverulenta.
Silver-leaved mountain gum is only known from a few scattered populations on the Central and Southern Tablelands of New South Wales, between Bathurst and Bombala. It grows in grassy woodland on hillsides and mountains.
