Tree Lophostemon confertus Queensland Brush Box
Description A rainforest tree native to the North-Eastern parts of Australia, this is a fast growing tree which is rarely affected by pests and diseases. Dome-like in shape, it develops a very dense foliage cover of dark green, leathery leaves providing good shade for the summer months.

Summer also brings clusters of small white flowers whose stamens give them a decorative fluffy appearance.
