Corymbia citriodora, commonly known as the lemon-scented gum, is a majestic evergreen tree prized for its tall, slender form and smooth, powdery white to pinkish bark. Its narrow, lance-shaped leaves emit a powerful, refreshing lemon fragrance when crushed, making it a favorite for essential oil production. This fast-growing species thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, exhibiting excellent drought tolerance once established. It is an ideal specimen for large landscapes and parks.
