Badja Gum is a forest tree that is grown for its majestic growth habit. It is planted in parks and large gardens as a specimen or used in woodland settings. It is not normally used in domestic gardens as it grows too large. It has a moderate growth rate and establishes in 2 to 4 years and is long lived. This tree re-shoots after low intensity fire.
