Eucalyptus amplifolia, commonly known as the cabbage gum,[3] is a tree that is endemic to eastern Australia.
It has smooth bark on its trunk and branches, lance-shaped leaves, and buds in groups of between seven and fifteen or more.
It has smooth, often blotchy, white, cream, yellow, grey, pink or blue-grey bark throughout the trunk and branches, usually with loose, flaking grey slabs persistent at the base and lower trunk.
Side-veins are 45° or greater to the midrib, and the leaves are of a dull or glossy green of the same hue both sides of the leaf.
[4] In 1990, Lawrie Johnson and Ken Hill described two subspecies of Eucalyptus amplifolia:[7] Cabbage gum grows in grassy woodland and forest, often in depressions and on river flats.
