Getting it in: the largest size here needs machine access rather than a doorway, and sometimes a lift over the roof. Measure the narrowest point on the route and tell us on the booking call. Standard access is included in the price, and anything unusual is quoted and agreed with you before work begins. What happens on installation day

Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Lemon Scented Gum - Corymbia citriodora
Few native trees command a landscape like Corymbia citriodora. Its powdery white trunk rises with architectural precision, delivering year-round presence and a quiet, unmistakable elegance suited to the most considered properties.
Why Lemon Scented Gum
Sculptural white trunk: A naturally smooth, ghost-white stem that functions as a living architectural element in any landscape composition.
Lemon-scented foliage: Narrow, aromatic leaves release a distinct citrus fragrance, adding a sensory dimension to the planting.
Native resilience: Indigenous to eastern Australia and fully adapted to local soils, heat, and drought conditions with minimal intervention.
Strong vertical form: Reaches 20 to 30 metres at maturity with a refined, upright silhouette that adds scale and drama immediately.
Low input requirement: Once established, thrives without supplemental feeding or irrigation in most warm-climate settings.
Ideal Applications
Signature feature specimen: Positioned to draw the eye and anchor a key view across a prestige property or open landscape.
Avenue and driveway planting: Repeated at interval along an entry drive, the white trunks create a formal, high-impact corridor.
Large-scale rural and acreage projects: Well-suited to expansive sites where height, canopy, and native character are priorities.
Contemporary and native landscape design: Integrates with precision into both modern minimalist schemes and curated native plantings.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (feature/avenue): 10 to 15m
