Eucalyptus plants are fast-growing evergreen trees and shrubs native to Australia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Eucalyptus trees can reach heights of up to 300 feet. Their bark is smooth to the touch and peels away easily. They are considered gum trees due to the sap excreted when the bark is broken.

You are purchasing Eucalyptus pulverulenta ‘Baby Blue’, a live silver dollar Eucalyptus shrub in a 4” pot, that can grow up to 30’.
It requires 8-10 hours of sunlight, and well draining soil. While it is somewhat drought-tolerant once established, water newly planted Eucalyptus regularly to prevent their leaves from drooping. If planted outdoors, in the ground, Eucalyptus should be mulched for moisture retention.
Outdoor planted Eucalyptus rarely need fertilizer, but potted Eucalyptus can benefit from liquid fertilizer in the spring. Regular pruning necessary for optimum plant health.

Eucalyptus essential oils and extracts are often found in both over-the-counter drugs and alternative medicines, but eucalyptus oil can be toxic when consumed, so keep it away from pets and children.
