Spotted Gum is an Australian eucalyptus hardwood, valued for its high density, durability, and striking grain. Its strength and resistance to harsh conditions make it an excellent choice for exterior decking and heavy-traffic areas.

Botanical Name: Corymbia maculata

Other Names: Lemon-scented gum, Eucalyptus maculata

Origin: Australia

Seasoning: Satisfactorily dried using conventional air and kiln seasoning methods.

Working Qualities: Spotted Gum, despite its strength and density is a great timber to work with as it has a good level of natural oils which allow easy machining. It accepts oil and stain well and has a lower tannin content than most other eucalyptus species. This means tannin staining and bleed-through is less of a problem. While it is excellent for machine work, Spotted Gum is also a good timber for carving and woodturning.

Uses: House framing, retaining walls, decking, fencing, landscaping, internal and external flooring, cladding, lining and joinery, indoor and outdoor furniture, plywood, veneer, bridge and wharf construction, poles and piles
