Eucalyptus densa, commonly known as the blue dwarf mallee,[1] is a eucalypt that is native to Western Australia.[2]
The mallee or tree typically grows to a height of 1 to 12 metres (3 to 39 ft) with smooth bark that sheds irregularly. It blooms between January and February or May to September and produces yellow-cream flowers. It is found on ridges, flats and drainage line areas of the southern Wheatbelt and Goldfields-Esperance regions of Western Australia where it grows in clay, loam, sandy or lateritic soils.[2]
