About

Xanthostemon eucalyptoides is a tree species in the family Myrtaceae that is endemic to Australia.

The tree typically grows to a height of 8 to 25 metres (26 to 82 ft). It blooms between June and July producing cream coloured flowers. The stem has a cream or pale brown colour with brittle stripes usually visible in the outer blaze. The stem is covered in flaky grey bark. The evergreen leaf blades are amplexicaul with a length of 5 to 12 centimetres (2.0 to 4.7 in) and a width of 3 to 7 centimetres (1.18 to 2.76 in) and having curving lateral veins. The leaves are discolorous with an elliptic shape with a base that is obtuse to cordate and an apex that is obtuse or emarginate. The inflorescence is cymose, often several in the upper axils forming a terminal cluster of five to thirty flowers that are up to 40 millimetres (1.57 in) long.
