Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Tree to 35' with smooth white bark, leathery evergreen leaves. ID uncertain. Australia. Possibly the fabulous weeping snowgum, E. lacrimans, but I remain a bit skeptical of that as the mature trees strongly resemble E. pauciflora subsp. pauciflora. For this reason, I offer them at a much lower price than my for-certain E. lacrimans. Hardiness should be in the neighborhood of 0 °F.
