A small and robust tree, usually less than 10 metres tall with a fibrous brown bark, long narrow dull-green leaves. It grows in a weeping habit, and looks remarkably like the weeping willow from a distance. It is most readily identified by the powerful odour of peppermint emitted when the leaves are crushed or torn. A great feature tree or native alternative to a willow tree. Streetscape tree.

Height 10m. Branch spread 5m.
