• An outstanding evergreen with silvery, green-blue leaves that's both fast-growing and easy to care for! The perfect choice to add winter interest to your garden.
• Small, delicate, creamy-white flowers readily attract bees and butterflies in late summer, while the fragrant, rounded foliage is a favourite of florists, taking on silver tones as the leaves mature.
• While eucalyptus can grow to more than 12m, it responds well to pruning techniques and can be kept as short as just a couple of metres. Grow as a multi-stemmed shrub or train as an upright tree.
• As your eucalyptus matures, it will shed its bark (or, to use the technical term, it will undergo decortication) to leave a patchwork appearance which only adds to its already-hefty charm.
• Known to repel insects like mosquitos, the ‘cider gum’ tree (as it’s often called) is a great choice for planting near water features, ponds, patios and decking.
• Endemic to the Australian island of Tasmania, eucalyptus leaves are a firm favourite of koalas, who can munch through a whopping 800g per day! Talk about eating your greens…
• Low maintenance, fully hardy and easy to grow, these plants undoubtedly make an exceptional addition to any garden. Oh, and it’s got an RHS Award of Garden Merit!
