Angophora melanoxylon, commonly known as Coolabah apple,[2] is a species of small to medium-sized tree that is endemic to eastern Australia.
It has rough, fibrous bark on the trunk and branches, linear to narrow lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of three or seven, white or creamy white flowers and cup-shaped, cylindrical or barrel-shaped fruit.
Angophora melanoxylon is a tree that typically grows to a height of 15 m (49 ft) and forms a lignotuber.
[2][3][4][5] Angophora melanoxylon was first formally described in 1900 by Richard Thomas Baker in the Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales.
[6][7] Coolabah apple grows in deep, sandy soils and occurs sporadically in dry areas between Pilliga, Coolabah and Bourke in New South Wales and Cunnamulla, Augathella and St George in Queensland.
