Jounama Snow Gum, Giant Snow Gum, Snow Gum, White Sally
Noted for its large silver-green leaves, Eucalyptus pauciflora subsp. debeuzevillei (Jounama Snow Gum) is a small, single or multi-stemmed, evergreen tree of open habit. It boasts a fantastic smooth bark flaking in ribbons from both the trunk and branches into shiny white, cream, green and gray patches. The foliage is blue-green, broadly elliptic when juvenile, glossy olive green and lance-shaped when adult. In late spring and early summer, clusters of 9-15 creamy-white flowers are borne amongst the foliage. Easy to grow, tolerant of cold, windy and exposed conditions, Jouana Snow Gum makes a splendid ornamental tree for costal exposed locations and most gardens.
Eucalyptus belongs to the Myrtaceae family, which includes popular shrubs and trees such as Feijoa (Acca sellowiana), Myrtle (Myrtus communis), and bottlebrush (Callistemon spp.).
