I saw another eucalyptus in the Australia discovery area in LA Arboretum. Since I couldn’t find the label, I rely on Google Lens to identify it. I hope it is correct.
在洛杉磯植物園澳大利亞園區，我又看到另一種桉樹，由於沒找到標籤，花了一些時間讓 Google Lens 辨識，希望沒錯。

Notes 筆記
- Eucalyptus preissiana, commonly known as bell-fruited mallee, is a species of small tree or shrub that occurs in an area between Albany and Esperance in Western Australia.
- It has a spreading habit, smooth bark, elliptical to egg-shaped or oblong leaves, flower buds in groups of three, yellow flowers and cup-shaped, conical or bell-shaped fruit.
- Eucalyptus preissiana was first formally described in 1844 by the Johannes Conrad Schauer and the description was published in Lehmann’s book Plantae Preissianae. The specific epithet honours Ludwig Preiss who collected the type specimen near Cape Riche in 1840.
- Bell-fruited mallee is found in coastal and sub-coastal areas among limestone and laterite and grows in gravelly sandy-clay soils. It occurs in coastal and near-coastal areas from the Stirling Range to the Fitzgerald River National Park and almost to Esperance to the east.
- Bell-fruited mallee can be cultivated in temperate areas of Australia but performs poorly in tropical environments. It is propagated from seeds and germinates easily. It prefers a position in full sun and in well-drained soils.
- Eucalyptus preissiana 通常被稱為鈴果桉樹，是一種小樹或灌木種，產於西澳大利亞的奧爾巴尼和埃斯佩蘭斯之間。
- 它有一個傳播的習性，樹皮光滑，橢圓形、蛋形的葉子，三朵花蕾成一團，黃色的花和杯形、圓錐形或鐘形的果實。
- Eucalyptus preissiana 早在1844年就由約翰內斯·康拉德·紹爾（Johannes Conrad Schauer）首次正式描述，並發表在萊曼（Lehmann）的《植物綱》中。特殊的稱呼是對路德維希·普瑞斯（Ludwig Preiss）的敬意，他於 1840 年在里奇角（Cape Riche）附近收集了這種類型的標本。
- 鈴果桉樹在石灰岩和紅土之間的沿海和近沿海地區出現，並生長在礫石砂土中。它出現在從斯特林山脈到菲茨杰拉德河國家公園以及近東的埃斯佩蘭斯的沿海和近沿海地區。
- 鈴果桉樹在澳大利亞的溫帶地區繁殖，但在熱帶環境下效果較差。 它可從種子開始繁殖並容易發芽。 它喜歡生長在陽光直射和排水良好的土壤中。
