iievei"; to my present Icnowlcdge, seen more tlian 15 feet higli. It is a low scrub, 

 found principally on clayey clay-slate and schist-flats, leaves very fleshy, flowers in 

 huge bunches at end of branches, flowers very fleshy; pods large. The specimens at 

 Burrundie, however, grow to a height of 30 feet or more — both broad leaf and narrow 

 leaf form, and the tree has the appearance of the Cabbage Gum. The leaves are not 

 as large as usual in the scrubby form. Wood white ant proof." 



" Bastard Bloodwood. Now in flower, has rough bark to top of branches, 

 narrow-leaved form. Another variety has bark like Moreton Bay Ash. Both have 

 reddish resinous splashes on bark. Leaves similar in both." Burrundie. Xnvember, 

 1915 (Dr. Jensen, No. 358).
