Report an issue with this species

Eucalyptus cornuta is an evergreen tree with rough, fibrous bark on the lower trunk and smooth bark above, forming a straight trunk crowned with spreading branches. Endemic to Southwest Western Australia, it is notable for its lignotuber, which enables regeneration after fire. This species is saline tolerant, making it suitable for coastal or urban landscapes.
