The Sydney Bluegum (Eucalyptus Saligna) is a tall, staight, thin tree that is probably one of the fastest growing Eucalyptus. It has been known to grow up to 10 feet in its first year.
Blue Gum High Forest is listed as an endangered ecological community under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. There is only 0.9% of the original extent of this forest left. Its distribution is limited to the northern suburbs of Sydney.
