Description

I think so. One of two species (the other Eucalyptus botryoides) growing both as part of a plantation but also naturalising in severely degraded peat bog. Bark in these trees whitish, smooth, in places peeling in long strips, these detaching from base, in-rolling and hanging loose on tree. Only flower buds seen no mature capsules noted on trees or on ground (they must be there but I could not find any).
