Grandis The Tallest Tree In NSW
This is the tallest tree known in NSW, and it is a 'Flooded' gum (Eucalyptus
Grandis) located about 100 metres east of Stoney Creek Road. The tree is 84.3
metres high and measures 2.7 metres through at breast height. It is estimated
to be about 400 years old and would have been quite a large tree when cook
sailed up the nearby coast.
The 'Flooded' gum is a smooth barked eucalyptus (gum) that regenerates freely
when disturbed by storm, fire, or logging. The area around the grandis (Wang
Wauk State Forest) was logged in 1977 leaving immature trees as a source of
seed. The regeneration has occurred naturally.
