Snowgum Tree, Tasmania & Queensland
Eucalyptus pauciflora (snow gum)
The colorful striations are created due to the fact that the tree doesn't shed all at once. Slowly, over time, different layers fall off, while other exposed areas have already begun aging. This process makes for a spectacular visual, with the rainbow eucalyptus looking.🌳🌲🌴🌳🫶🏼🌳

Secondary dyepot with E. pauciflora
So happy was I, with the colour of the socks in my first experiment with E. pauciflora that I decided to give the dyepot another go and topped it up with more Eucalyptus pauciflora leaves.
I'm mindful of my impact when gathering leaves to use as dyestuffs. snowgums are a rare-ish tree in Canberra, especially in natural settings. Therefore I only gather fallen leaves occasionally from wild trees, or harvest sparingly from cultivated trees. There are many different subspecies of E. pauciflora, and this will probably influence the outcome of the dyepot.
For the 2nd dyepot I topped it up with E. pauciflora from cultivated saplings growing at Lennox crossing sculpture park and boiled these leaves in dyepot with added water for 2-3 hours.
The result was pale lemon colour. I tried to dye maybe 5 skeins of wool – I think too much fibre for the available pigment. It produced a buttery lemon on pure merino and brown on merino nylon blend (forgot to take photos of the nylon blend before overdying). Undecided if I will use this light yellow merino skein or overdye it. I've used the nylon blends in my austral indigo experiments.
-
Around this time I discovered that I’ve been inadvertently shrinking my wool in the dyepot from accidentality boiling it – I’m a bit laissez-faire about letting the dyepot heat up unsupervised, and the old tea urn that we use is no good at holding temp below boiling, so can’t be left alone for long periods of time.
