How to Prune Swamp mahogany?
(Eucalyptus robusta)
Swamp mahogany, also known as Brown gum, Robusta eucalyptus, White mahogany
A native Australian evergreen known for its tall stature and lance-shaped leaves, swamp mahogany thrives in wet conditions. Strategic pruning fosters healthy growth and maintains structure. Remove dead or diseased branches, thin crown for light penetration and airflow, and shape young trees early to avoid large cuts later. Prune in winter when dormant, minimizing stress and disease risk. Pruning boosts flower production, essential for its ecological role as a nectar source for wildlife.
