Corymbia ficifolia (Eucalyptus ficifolia, F. v. M.) Crimson-flowered Eucalypt. Handsome small tree, rarely to 50 ft.: bark dark, furrowed: lvs. ovate- lanceolate, firm and thick; veins almost transverse: fls. red, large and in large clusters; lid thin, nearly flat: fr. 1-1½ in. wide, broadly urn- shaped, the walls very woody; border compressed; seeds pale brown or almost red, winged on one end or also along one side.— Very ornamental, especially in bloom. Tender and adapted only to the lemon belt; a heat-resisting avenue tree, withstanding drought. The fls. vary from pink to crimson and scarlet and the forms do not come true to seed; grafted plants are now offered in the trade, the bright scarlet shade being generally preferred.
