Eucalyptus - Strawberry Gum

$21.00 ($9.75-$21.00 choose a size)

The leaves have a strong aroma somewhat reminiscent of passion fruit or strawberries, used for flavouring and perfumery. Prefers full-sun conditions and well-drained soil, tolerant of low soil fertility. Natural occurs in montane woodlands near Tenterfield NSW. Medium-sized tree up to 10 metres. The tree is frost tolerant down to -8C degrees. Strawberry gum is ideal for temperate conditions but can also grow in subtropical conditions. Leaves can be harvested as required. Harvesting the leaves for culinary use and cut-foliage can done individually or by pruning branches back by 60-80 cm. Regular light pruning also maintains a shorter tree and denser canopy more suited for backyard situations. Use: The strawberry gum has several uses due to the presence of essential oils in the leaf and has been harvested commercially for flavouring and perfumery since the 1980s. Strawberry gum leaf is used to enhance the flavour of cooked fruit dishes and in deserts spiced jams and confectionary to bring-out the classic berry flavour. The leaf is used fresh or dried and as a ground spice. It can also be used in native herb teas and carbonated beverages. The main ingredient methyl cinnamate which imparts a fruity aroma and flavour and composes of up to 98% of the essential oil with ocimene being the remainder at 2%. The oil yield is very high varying from 2-6% fresh weight. When distilling a natural solvent needs to be added to the still during distillation to prevent methyl cinnamate crystals clogging the still.

Hoop Pine

$9.90 ($4.90-$29.00 choose a size)

This is the tallest of the native pines and it is quite capable of reaching heights of more than 40 metres making it an impressive addition to my garden. It is a wonderful bird-attracting tree, as they love to nest in its protective prickly foliage and is an excellent host for lots of native orchid species.Australian Timber Database

Eucalyptus - River Red Gum

$3.75 ($3.75-$4.90 choose a size)

Iconic Red Gum, growing along inland rivers. Provides habitat and food for a wide variety of keystone species - mammals, bird and insects. Handsome, spreading and extremely long lived tree with smooth cream bark, often with brown, pink and grey strips with a short skirt of persistent bark. It has a widespread distribution along the Murray Darling river system, preferring clay soil and they are crucial in regulating water tables. They thrive when subjected to routine flooding, and suffer when this is removed. Limbs are known to fall without warning so should be planted away from habitation. Hollow bearing so a very important tree for hollow dependent nesting wildlife. Wood is tough and termite resistant.
