Latin Name:  Angophora floribunda
Family:  Myrtaceae
Author:  (Sm.)Sweet.

Known Hazards:  None known

Mature Height:  18   Mature Width:

Habitat:  Sub-coastal districts, especially on alluvial flats[156], also to 1200 metres in New South Wales[167].

Cultivation Notes: Prefers a sunny position in a moderately fertile well-drained moisture retentive circum-neutral soil[200]. Tolerates poor and dry soils, especially those low in mineral elements[200]. Established plants are drought tolerant[200]. Plants are not very wind resistant[77]. Plants succeed outdoors in Britain only in the very mildest areas of the country[200]. They are hardy to at least -7°c in Australian gardens[157], but this cannot be translated directly to British gardens because of our cooler summers and longer colder and wetter winters. Trees lose their branches in high winds[157]. They shed their bark annually[167]. The flowers are very attractive to bees[156].
