Dwarf Apple Myrtle - Angophora hispida

Height: 7m
Width: 5m
Best feature: Masses of creamy white flowers in summer
Worst feature: Not adapted to frost so the first few winters might be tough
Ideal for: Those who love native birds but don’t have room for a large gum tree

The Dwarf Apple Gum is a relative of Eucalypts but as the name suggests, it is compact and neat. Sure to attract lots of native birds, beetles and bees, this is a great tree for blocking an unwanted view as the canopy is naturally dense.
