Outstanding example of species

This Manna Gum (Eucalyptus viminalis) is an outstanding example of the species. It is a large, impressive tree and makes a considerable contribution to the landscape. It is one of the few remaining trees left after colonisation of the area 100 years ago.
The local community have incorporated the tree into a park, "Manna Park", named after the tree. There is no recorded history of a relationship between the local area and the tree.
This specimen has a large symmetrical canopy and is in excellent health. It appears that it is growing and the southermost end of its geographical range.
