Eucalyptus crenulata, commonly known as Buxton Gum, Silver Gum, or Victorian Silver Gum, is a rare, medium-sized, evergreen tree endemic to the Central Highlands of Victoria, Australia, particularly in the Buxton area. It is typically found in riparian zones, along streams, and in swampy or waterlogged soils. This species reaches a typical height of 10–12 meters and is noted for its hard, rough, compacted, grey to brown or black bark on the trunk, and smooth grey or yellowish bark on the branches. The leaves are sessile, egg-shaped to heart-shaped, and arranged in opposite pairs. The flower buds are covered with a white, powdery bloom, and the white flowers bloom from September to February, providing a showy display. The cup-shaped fruit that follows is also notable.

The Buxton Gum is valued for its ornamental features, including its attractive bark and showy white flowers. It is drought-tolerant, making it suitable for low-water gardens, and it thrives in full sun with medium to fast-draining soils. It is often used in reforestation projects, as a windbreak, and in ornamental plantings. Despite its beauty, it can be susceptible to eucalyptus gall wasp and other pests. Gardeners should be aware that Eucalyptus species can become invasive when grown outside their native range and should be planted with caution.CC BY-SA 4.0
