Corymbia confertiflora, commonly known as broad-leaved carbeen or rough leaf cabbage gum,[2] is a species of tree that is endemic to northern Australia.
It has rough, tessellated bark near the base of the trunk, smooth white to pale grey bark above, a crown of both intermediate and adult leaves, large numbers of flower buds borne on leafless sections of branchlets in groups of seven, creamy white flowers and cylindrical to barrel-shaped or bell-shaped fruit.
Corymbia confertiflora is an often straggly or crooked tree that typically grows to a height of 3–18 m (9.8–59.1 ft) and forms a lignotuber.
The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils on leafless parts of branchlets on a much-branched peduncle that is up to 20 mm (0.79 in) long.
[7][8] In 1995 Kenneth Hill and Lawrence Alexander Sidney Johnson changed the name to Corymbia confertiflora in the journal Telopea.
