Tristaniopsis laurina, also known as water gum or kanooka, is a tree species native to Australia. It is commonly found along the eastern coastline and near streams, where its unique shape reflects the height of past floods. This slow-growing tree can reach heights of 15-30 feet and up to 128 feet in its native habitat. Its bright yellow flowers, which bloom in late spring or early summer, have a strong scent that attracts bees. Tristaniopsis laurina is popular for cultivation in gardens and civic landscaping due to its ease of growth and ability to provide shade. It is commonly used as a street tree in Sydney.
