Caiif. A tree up to 60 feet high, more or less glaucous, with smooth bark, but more 

 or less rough-flaky bark at the butt. The mature leaves are lanceolate, slightly 

 falcate, fragrant, thick, slightly shining, and average about 5 inches long. Native 

 to alpine regions of New South Wales, and believed to be much more cold resistant than 

 most eucalypts. For trial in. the milder parts of California and in the Gulf region.

124659. EUCALYPTUS GUKNII. Cider gum. From California. Presented by John McLaren, 

 Superintendent, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. The cider eucalypt is usually a 

 scrubby tree up to 50 feet high, and grows at altitudes of 4,000 to 5,000 feet in 

 Australia, In spring, the Tasmanians made a cider from the sweetish sap. The tree 

 is also known as sugar gum because of the sweetness of its leaves, v/hich are browsed 

 readily by stock. The bark yields tannin, v/hich, in a 12-weeks' process, colors 

 leather light brov/n and makes it fairly flexible. It has stood 22° F. without injury 

 and probably will withstand considerably lower temperatures. The species is well 

 adapted to dry situations and has grown 7 feet a. year on deep, sandy soil in Florida. 

 For trial in the milder parts of California and the Southwest and in southern Florida.

132628. EUCALYPTUS HAEMASTOMA. From Australia. Presented by F. H. Baker, Richmond, 

 Victoria. A large tree with smooth mottled bark and lanceolate falcate leathery 

 leaves. The inconcspicuous flowers are followed by fruits one-quarter inch across. 

 The tree is said to thrive in poor sandy soil but not to be suited to dry interior 

 valleys. The timber is inferior. For trial in .southera California and southern 

 Florida. (Chico, Calif.) 



132629. EUCALYPTUS MARGINATA. Jarrah. From Australia. Presented by F. H. Baker, 

 Richmond, Victoria. A tree that grows tall under favorable conditions but which is 

 often low, with somev/hat fibrous bark, persistent or flaking off in strips. The 

 lanceolate leaves are 3 to 6 inches long, and the white flowers, with stamens one- 

 quarter inch long, tippear in the spring. The hard wood is easily worked, takes a fine 

 polish, is insect resistant, and said to be almost incombustible. It has a wide 

 range of uses, both under and above ground. The tree requires a warm climate. For 

 trial in the v/armest parts of southern California and southern Florida. (Chico, 

 Calif.)

 leathery, shining, 1 to 3 inches long. The inflorescence is in short, axillary 

 umbels of o to 7 small white flowers. Native to alpine regions of New South Wales 

 and Victoria .and believed to be much more cold resistant than most eucalypts. For 

 trial in the milder parts of California and in the Gulf region. (Chico, Calif.)
