Eucalypt of the Year 2026 – Our Eucalypt Home
Unique. Irreplaceable. Treasured.
Think it’s only humans that yearn to find their dream home? Ask a Koala, Swift Parrot or Murray Cod what they need to survive and you’ll find that a gum tree fits the bill. Eucalypts support our Australian wildlife in a surprising number of irreplaceable, ingenious and often invisible ways. With little fanfare, these quiet achievers keep our unique animals, plants and fungi fed, watered, sheltered and safe. And with an abundance of threats to our eucalypts, it’s up to us to protect these iconic trees and the irreplaceable role they play in Australia. After all, home is where the gum is!
