Description
This listing is for 100 seeds of Eucalyptus obliqua also known as Messmate Stringybark.
Easy to grow from seed, these work best if sown over the surface of the seed raising mix and not covered (the seed is small).
For best results, these seeds should be sown soon after arrival, onto a well-drained seed raising mix at any time of the year, and keep moist. Keep at between 15 and 20°C. Germination usually occurs within 4 to 6 weeks although may take longer. No pre treatments are required for this Eucalyptus species.
An important timber species, the sapwood is pale brown, the heartwood light brown. It has an even texture, with straight grains sometimes interlocked, and well-defined rings. Gum veins are common.
The timber has moderate hardness and strength, but low durability. It splits easily, and is easily worked, glued and stained; it is also suitable for steam bending. It is mostly used for pulp production and for construction and manufacture, especially in house building, joinery, flooring, and furniture.
Potentially a very tall tree, reaching 90 metres in some habitats. It has a sturdy straight trunk with continuous stringybark over the whole trunk.
