  Corymbia ficifolia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Corymbia ficifolia or the Red Flowering Gum (previously known as Eucalyptus ficifolia) is one of the most commonly planted ornamental trees in the broader eucalyptus family.
In nature Corymbia ficifolia prefers infertile, sandy soils but it is readily adaptable to most temperate locations, provided it is not exposed to severe frost or sustained tropical damp.
Corymbia ficifolia is a close relative of the West Australian Marri or Port Gregory Gum (Corymbia calophylla).

 Corymbia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The genus Corymbia includes about 113 species of tree that were classified as Eucalyptus-species until the mid-1990s.
All three genera - Angophora, Corymbia and Eucalyptus - are closely related, often difficult to tell apart, and are still commonly and correctly referred to as "eucalypts".
A tall, smooth-trunked tree native to central and northern Queensland and planted in many other areas, well known for the beauty of its white or light grey trunk and instantly recognisable by the strong lemon scent of its leaves.

 Corymbia - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
The genus Corymbia includes about 113 species of tree that were classified as eucalypts until the mid-1990s, including the bloodwoods and the ghost gums.
The bloodwoods had been recognised as a distinct group within the large and diverse eucalyptus genus since 1867.
Molecular research in the 1990s, however, showed that they, along with the ghost gums, are more closely related to the angophoras than to eucalypts, and are probably best regarded as a separate genus.

The nearest ghost gum, Corymbia tessellaris (Carbeen or Moreton Bay Ash), occurs northwards from northern New South Wales.
More generally, Corymbia can be identified through a combination of characters (shared in some cases with species of Eucalyptus) such as the terminal panicles of urceolate shaped fruits, the wide angle of the leaf venation, and the rough flaky bark although not all species have all these characteristics.

RSB typically affects the new shoots of young trees and is characterised by the association of pure white, shiny or powdery, fungal lesions with grossly distorted leaves and curled or twisted stems.
In Queensland, RSB has been reported on a number of Corymbia species, mostly on young plants in tree nurseries, or in plantations up to three years of age.
Corymbia torelliana and several Angophora species are also susceptible in the glasshouse, but, appear to be immune under field conditions.
