any of several low-growing Australian eucalypts

a distinctive Australian plant formation of small trees, such as Eucalytus viridis , in semiarid regions between subhumid woodlands of the Great Dividing Range and arid shrublands of the outback

a sclerophyllous shrub or small tree that is multi-stemmed from a tuberous woody rootstock; a plant community dominated by this growth form

refers to a type of eucalyptus with multiple trunks growing from a large central tuberous root, also refers to a geographical area in which they are the dominant vegetation.

the growth form of many eucalypts, i.e. a multi-stemmed shrub with a lignotuber; (sometimes used loosely for a low straggly short-trunked tree)

a growth habit in which several woody stems arise separately from a lignotuber (usually applied to shrubby eucalypts); a plant having the above growth habit; vegetation dominated by such plants.
