Eucalyptus oleosa (eucalyptus)

Wikipedia Abstract

Eucalyptus oleosa, commonly known as the red mallee, glossy-leaved red mallee or the acorn mallee, is a native tree of Australia. The leaves were once harvested for the production of cineole based eucalyptus oil. Eucalyptus cneorifolia is now the predominant strain used in production due to a higher oil content in new growth.
