    Red Flowering Gum (Corymbia ficifolia), Malvern Grove

    This is a particularly large and healthy example of the species within a street of mixed plantings that contain several other large mature Red Flowering Gums. It could represent an important source of propagating stock due its age, size and health, and the fact it has not been impacted by borer and pathogens.
