Description

The classic Eucalyptus is a fast growing tree from the subtropical regions of Australia. In its juvenile stage, Eucalyptus gunnii is relatively hardy. Eucalyptus is peculiar because of its silvery-green foliage which has a different shape in its juvenile stage, compared to its adult stage. Young plants develop sprays covered in bluish-green leaves. This is very interesting as far as the production of summer perennials in containers is concerned but the shoots are also popular as cut foliage.
