This poor old Eucalyptus or Scribble Gum tree is well over 100 years old and was too tall to photograph in one shot. It's characteristic by it's woody tree trunk or scribble like writing on the trunk full of hard bark which is very rough and rouged to touch.
We now have two new varieties of Eucalyptus Summer Beauty and Summer Red, which are two outstanding new pink and red flowering hybrid gum trees that can be grown in in a garden or in a pots.
So humbled that my messy scribbles were featured on the blog today! :)

This is what my examination pad looks like after leaving it on the titled flooring underneath my desk for approximately ten months. Must have gotten wet during winter somehow?

A new block! Doing a test round for a quilt I sketched --- a whole lot of these together look like cute little squiggly lines...hence Scribbles! I drafted a small version (12" square) for jelly roll strips and a larger (24") block that is FQ-friendly. I'm quite taken with this pattern!
There is an Australian tree called a scribble gum on account of having a worm that makes scribbly marks on its surface. These marks on a Kauri tree leaves look very similar but I don't know if it is the same or similar bug.
At Fernglen gardens.

Eucalyptus sclerophylla, known as the Scribbly Gum, is a tree native to eastern Australia. Very similar to the related Scribbly Gum (E. haemastoma), a better known tree. The best way of distinguishing the species is the smaller hemispherical to pear shaped gumnuts of Eucalyptus sclerophylla, being 0.6 cm by 0.6 cm in size. Flower buds are also smaller. sclerophylla literally means hard leaf. Both species have hard leaves, but Eucalyptus sclerophylla's leaves are particularly hard edged.
Occurring on the poorer sandstone soils in mid to high rainfall areas. Around Sydney it often occurs on the higher ridges, where the soil is drier and less fertile. It ranges north from Jervis Bay, to near the Watagan district near Newcastle.
A small to medium sized tree, up to 20 metres tall, usually seen around 6 metres tall. Smooth barked, with shedding bark of white or grey. Scribbles often found on the bark. Leaves 5 to 16 cm long, 2 to 4 cm wide wide. Almost a glossy green, on both sides of the leaf. White flowers form between November and February.
