Eucalyptus macrocarpa, Rose of the West
Rose of the West
An evergreen shrub that will reach up to twelve feet high by fifteen feet wide. The foliage is scented and is white to silver. Large red flowers (the largest of any eucalyptus) bloom in the spring and summer. The gray green leaves resemble a boomerang and are curved. This shurb responds well to pruning-especially because it has heavy branches.
