Growth—
A plant mainly of the warm temperate and subtropical regions of eastern Australia, just moving into the tropical zone in Queensland. The plant has developed a characteristic thick, corky bark, which is apparently an adaptive response to periodic firing. It survives quite well in the ecotone between the fire-prone eucalypt forests of the coastal 'wallum' country and the rainforests fringing water courses over a wide latitudinal range[1].
