Table 1 Descriptions of regions, provenances, and climate of locations from where the two subspecies of Eucalyptus loxophleba for the seed orchard planting were sourced. The number of families in each provenance and individual trees assessed for flowering traits are also described. Climatic data and elevation which were obtained from SILO dataset43 from 1985 to 2015.
