description_en: Genus of one species of evergreen tree occurring in woodland in S.E. Australia, including Tasmania. In its natural habitat, A. moschatum grows to 20-30m (70-100ft) tall, but it is much smaller in cultivation, when it is best grown in sheltered woodland. Both the opposite, simple, aromatic leaves and the white flowers produced in spring (the male and female blooms on different plants) are attractive. In very cold areas, grow in a cool greenhouse.
