Eucalyptus × erythrandra, commonly known as rosebud gum,[2] is a species of mallee or shrub that is endemic to Western Australia. It typically grows to a height of 1.5–5 m (4 ft 11 in – 16 ft 5 in) and has smooth grey bark, and pinkish flowers from September to October or January. It grows in mallee scrub in the Esperance Plains and Mallee biogeographic regions.[3]
This eucalypt was originally given the name Eucalyptus erythrandra by William Blakely and Henry Steedman who published the description in Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales.[2][4] It is now accepted by the Australian Plant Census as a hybrid, either between E. incrassata and E. tetraptera or between E. angulosa and E. tetraptera.[1]
