Koala Food Trees

Koalas are folivores - specialist leaf eaters, they mostly feed on Eucalyptus leaves but they do feed on other species. Adult Koalas and Joeys will choose species that vary from one location to another according to what grows in their home range, they do prefer species that are endemic to their local area so if you are looking to plant some Koala food trees, do a little bit of research beforehand.

Recently I attended a Redlands Bonsai Society event that showcased Australian Natives that have been grown successfully and so beautifully into Bonsai specimens, even I was surprised at some of the different varieties used!
