"Tree to 45 m tall. Lignotuber often absent. Bark smooth to small branches or with a few rough loose grey basal slabs; smooth bark white, cream and pale grey with yellow, pink or brown patches." (Euclid, 4th Ed.)

Eucalyptus camaldulensis is another of the red gums heavily utilised within mined land rehabilitation where saline spoils may be problematic. To this end we have an interest in its natural tolerance to salinity.

Seed collection from this species is made easier by its habit of setting seed more frequently than many other Eucalypts possibly explained by its preference for well watered sites. Reasonable volumes may be harvested from an individual tree. Accessibility is good due to its distribution which includes vast, quiet expanses of the inland.

Eucalyptus camaldulensis contains many subspecies. The subspecies, acuta, camaldulensis and obtusa will be covered here later.
