Statement of Significance
The Salmon Gum is an original tree.
Physical Description
The Salmon Gum is 40-50ft high with a huge umbrella canopy, growing alongside Great Southern Highway.
History
The Salmon Tree Gum is an original tree. The tree was preserved when the road was built because a local farmer, who owns the paddock opposite, stopped the Shire Council workers from bulldozing it out of the way for a road project. With the help of the 'Men of Trees' he was able to have the Shire changes the road design and keep the tree.
