Eucalyptus kruseana, also known as the bookleaf mallee, is a unique and compact eucalyptus with striking silvery-blue, round foliage and decorative greenish yellow flowers. It grows as a straggly multi-stemmed mallee to 3m and has bark that sheds in ribbons. Adult leaves rarely form in the crown so it has only its juvenile leaves which give it it's unique character.
It has a sculptural form making it a favourite for florists and landscapers alike. Great in smaller gardens and easy to care for.
