"Tree to 10 m." (Flora of Australia)

"Usually grows in dry rainforest on basalt." (Flora of Australia)

Whilst we have used this tree in small amounts for mine rehabilitation it could be an exceptional subject for ornamental horticulture, as a tree for streets, parks and gardens. Attractive trees such as this could be used to replace weedy trees which have sometimes been tolerated in public spaces to date. Very resilient to the effects of drought it seems to flower and grow through almost every dry Spring season. The seed is contained in samaras and most likely has a short viability period.
