It was harder to find the common name for this tree than the previous one. Mt Annan Botanic Gardens called it Eucalyptus inversa, The Doc finally found other names including Eucalyptus inversa, Eucalyptus irritans, Eucalyptus israelitica, Eucalyptus kessellii subsp kessellii, Eucalyptus goniantha or the Jerdacuttup Mallee. The Doc chose the Brooker taxon of Eucalyptus kessellii subsp kessellii.
Mt Annan Botanic Gardens referred to this as Corymbia cafie, a little used name. It took The Doc some time to find the more commonly used name of Corymbia hendersonii or Henderson’s bloodwood.
