Eucalyptus globulus subsp. maidenii
Eucalyptus globulus subsp. maidenii
Maiden's gum is a fast-growing eucalyptus tree best suited to large outdoor spaces with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Once established it is relatively drought tolerant and low maintenance, though it requires plenty of room as it can reach significant heights quickly. Its aromatic foliage has a long history of medicinal use and the tree makes an effective windbreak or specimen planting.
