Mallet (habit)
A mallet is a small-tree form of Eucalyptus found in Western Australia. Unlike the mallee, it is single-stemmed and lacks a lignotuber. Species of this form have a relatively long, slender trunk, steeply-angled branches, often a conspicuously dense terminal crown, and sometimes form thickets.
Mallet species include:
- Brown mallet
- Blue mallet, blue-leaved mallet, Gardner's mallet
- Green mallet
- Salt River mallet, Sargent's mallet
- Silver mallet
- Steedman's mallet
- Swamp mallet
- White mallet
- Fuchsia gum
