Description

This is the tallest tree known in NSW, and it is a ‘Flooded’ Gum (Eucalyptus Grandis) located about 100 metres east of Stoney Creek Road. The tree is 84.3 metres high and measures 2.7 metres through at breast height. It is estimated to be about 400 years old and would have been quite a large tree when Cook sailed up the East Coast. The ‘Flooded’ gum is a smooth barked eucalyptus (gum) that regenerates freely when disturbed by storm, fire, or logging. The area around the Grandis (Myall Lakes National Park) was logged in 1977 leaving immature trees as a source of seed. The regeneration has occurred naturally. Image supplied by Ian Brown/OEH.
