If something is "up a gum tree", it is off on the wrong track, and considerably diverted from the real task or answer. A person who is "up a gum tree" is also either on the wrong track, or sometimes apparently crazy.
Green turtles eat mangrove leaves. It is not just the leaves themselves which attract the green turtle, but epiphytic algae or invertebrates found on the leaves. Certain crabs have also been observed eating the seedlings and leaves of mangroves, such as the mangrove crab and the tree-dwelling mangrove tree crab.

A coolibah tree, also spelt as coolabah, is a type of eucalyptus tree.The coolibah tree has the scientific name of eucalyptus microtheca, and grows in arid and semi-arid areas near watercourses and waterholes (rivers, creeks and, of course, billabongs) in all states of Australia except Victoria and Tasmania, as well as bushland areas that receive heavy seasonal rain and have periodic flooding.

The Jolly Swagman in Waltzing Matilda
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong "under the shade of a coolibah tree".
Well the a billabong is the blind or dead end of a river and a coolibah is any of several Australian gum trees, in which is abundant along river banks and having sickle shaped leaves and wrinkled, cracked bark. So, basically the meaning of that quote is that the time that this person values most is the time he/she spends under the shad of the sickle-shaped leaves of the billabong or blind or dead end river.
This is a "coolibah" tree, sometimes spelt "coolabah", a type of eucalyptus (gum tree) found in both coastal areas and the drier inland areas, but along riverbeds and anywhere that flooding may sometimes occur. It grows up to about 15m high, spreading its branches widely to provide good shade for cattle (and swagmen...). The name of the tree is unique to Australia because it comes from the Indigenous Australian Yuwaaliyaay word "gulabaa".
