The magnificent DARWiN WOOLLYBUTT (Eucalyptus miniata) is an iconic top-end woodland eucalypt known for its fibrous bark at the trunk base and its smooth, white upper trunk and branches. Like a tree with trousers on, the Woollybutt blooms annual vibrant orange and scarlet blossoms, producing edible seeds and nectar vital for sustaining native bees and birds, with blooming marking the commencement of annual fire protection strategies (fire stick farming season) in top-end landscapes.
