21.—GREY GUM (Euc. Griffithsii).
Is quite unlike E. Le Souefii, having a dark grey flaky bark almost over the whole trunk, and is seldom over 25ft. high. In general appearance it is intermediate between Euc. Le Souefii and E. longicornis.
The leaves of this tree are a brighter green than those of Euc. Le Souefii, the flowers are about the same size and yellowish, but the fruits are larger, bell-shaped, and nearly ¾ inch long with a flat top. There are no prominent ribs, and the flower-buds are wide, and flat. The range is the same as that of the Goldfields Blackbutt.
