Family Myrtaceae
Originating from Tasmania

A versatile evergreen tree that with hard annual pruning can be maintained as a large shrub. The grey/green leaves are prized by flower arrangers, not only for their beauty but the unmistakable eucalyptus fragrance. With age, the grey/brown bark peels and shreds, exposing a creamy white trunk, adding yet another dimension to this wonderful specimen.
Eucalyptus require full sun, are very fast-growing, and it is preferable to grow them in poor soil where they will be forced to quickly establish deep anchoring roots.
Height after 10 years without pruning 8 – 12m. Spread 6m

Eventual mature plant size :
Height 12m+
Spread 8m+
