10 Trees

When I got off the plane in Sydney, I could confidently rhyme off about 70 of Ontario's roughly 80 native species, plus a handful of exotic specimens. Little did I realize that Australia has over 600 species of Eucalyptus alone, and more than 5 times more ecosystems! Not knowing where to start was incredibly daunting. I've tried to include a wide variety here to help clear up any confusion, and give you a place to start.
1. Corymbia Citriodora

Size
Structure
Fun Facts - Smells like lemon. Surprise, surprise.
Notes - First time I saw this tree I was aghast at the untrained arborists who opted to lions tail such an incredible tree. Turns out that's just how it grows.
2. Eucalyptus Camaldulensis

​
3. Meleleuca stypheloides
4. Leptospermum laevigatum
5. Eucalyptus regnans
6. Ficus
7. Auraucaria heterophyla
8. Casurina
9. Greveillia robusta
10. Acacia melanoxalin
