Eucalyptus grisea is a tree that typically grows to a height of 28 m (92 ft) and has smooth, patchy whitish and dark greyish brown bark. Young plants and coppice regrowth have leaves that are paler on the lower surface, petiolate, up to 100 mm (3.9 in) long and 30–50 mm (1.2–2.0 in) wide. Adult leaves are lance-shaped to egg-shaped or curved, dark green on the upper surface, paler below, 100–180 mm (3.9–7.1 in) long and 30–60 mm (1.2–2.4 in) wide on a petiole 17–33 mm (0.67–1.30 in) long. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils on an unbranched peduncle 8–15 mm (0.31–0.59 in) long, the individual buds on pedicels 2–4 mm (0.079–0.157 in) long. Mature buds are oval, 7–10 mm (0.28–0.39 in) long and 4–5 mm (0.16–0.20 in) wide with a conical operculum. The flowers are white and the fruit is a woody, usually cup-shaped capsule 4–9 mm (0.16–0.35 in) long and 8–12 mm (0.31–0.47 in) wide with the valves protruding above rim level.
