Eucalyptus sepulcralis
Also called Weeping Mallee, Blue Weeping Gum
Weeping gum (Eucalyptus sepulcralis) is a slender mallee or small tree from the southern coast of Western Australia, with a weeping habit and silvery foliage. It is grown mainly for its graceful form and drought tolerance, and it needs full sun and very well-drained soil.
Eucalyptus sepulcralis, commonly known as weeping gum or weeping mallee, is a mallee that is endemic to a small area along the southern coast of Western Australia. It has slender stems with smooth bark, narrow elliptical to narrow lance-shaped leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, pale yellow flowers and barrel-shaped to urn-shaped fruit.
Weeping gum has a small distribution and is found in the southern Kwongan heathland on hillslopes along the south coast in the Goldfields-Esperance region between Ravensthorpe and Hopetoun, especially throughout the Fitzgerald River National Park where it grows in skeletal sandy quartzite soils. In the low heathland environment it dominates the landscape.
