Syzygium francisii
Also called Rose Satin Ash, Rose Satinash
Syzygium francisii is a large native Australian rainforest tree from the eastern seaboard, from Queensland to New South Wales, grown as a shade or specimen tree. Grown well in a large, deep, fertile, moist soil with plenty of room, it is not a typical container or houseplant.
Syzygium francisii is a native Australian tree, common on the eastern sea board, between Morisset, New South Wales (33° S) and Gladstone, Queensland (23° S). Common names include giant water gum, rose satinash, and Francis water gum. The habitat of Syzygium francisii is rainforest on basaltic or fertile alluvial soils.
Several fine examples may be seen at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney. An often seen Syzygium francisii is at the start of the Mount Warning walking track in far north eastern New South Wales.
