"Tree to 15 m tall, or sometimes a mallee. Forming both lignotuber and rhizomes. Bark rough on trunk often extending to branches about 6 cm diameter, tessellated, soft, grey, brown and yellow-grey." (Euclid, 4th Ed.)

Some distinguishing features of the Corymbia trachyphloia are its small fruit from 6-10mm long, and its seed which has no wing. It will often be found growing on poorer soils.
