Eucalyptus
(Eucalyptus globulus)
Eucalyptus tree reaches heights of approximately 40 meters and features a distinctive bark that peels off in long strips, revealing a smooth, grayish trunk underneath. The wood is heavy, hard, and deeply fissured. Its young leaves are oval and arranged opposite each other, while mature leaves become lance-shaped. The greenish-white flowers have an unusual structure, with numerous yellow stamens radiating from an orange center, resembling a sunburst.
