🎄About the Eucalyptus 5 litre Twin Pack Deal Species on offer🎄
- None of these species will grow into a monster – just follow our comprehensive instructions.
- They are all easy to grow
- You are going to grow them as bushy shrubs with a little annual pruning, to yield a useful quantity of cut foliage stems for floral art work.
- All of them flower with white blooms, beloved by pollinating insects and honey bees.
Eucalyptus archeri – Alpine Cider Gum: Classical Eucalyptus. Cute, round, blue juvenile foliage with typical fresh eucalyptus aroma. Naturally bushy and high yielding. Happy on normal range of garden soils including alkaline clays. Great as a silvery blue bushy shrub.
Eucalyptus moorei – Little Sally: highly aromatic, minty foliage – strap-like leaves. Soft jade green colour to the leaves. Dwarf habit, very bushy. Happy on a normal range of garden soils, acidic to neutral. Enjoys a slightly more sheltered sunny spot that other Eucs. Very rewarding to grow in a patio pot.
Eucalyptus nicholii ‘Avon’- Willow Peppermint: beautiful, feathery, sage-green foliage with a fabulous fresh pepper-minty aroma. The new growth is often apricot suffused with raspberry in colour, before turning age-green. The branches have lovely movement – great for floral work, even just popped into a vase. Favoured by florists for wedding work as well as wreaths and garlands. Eucalyptus nicholli is also great as a bushy shrub for your garden border.
Eucalyptus parvula – Small Leaved Kybean Gum: subtle soft grey-blue foliage with sweetly spicy eucalyptus aroma. Very productive and high yielding. Happy on the normal range of garden soils including alkaline chalky ones and wet clays. Tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions. A very easy one to grow.
Eucalyptus subcrenulata – Alpine Tasmanian Yellow Gum: clear apple-green foliage with sweetly spicy eucalyptus aroma. Productive and great as a base for celebratory wreaths, garlands and floral work. Enjoys normal to wet garden soils. Exceptionally easy to grow. Very good at retaining its lower foliage. We find it makes an excellent hedge.

Remember: No grass, no weeds and a mulch mat or thick bark chip mulch, to a depth of 150 mm (6 inches) are essential to assist with good establishment. Our research trials have demonstrated that grass around the trunk of Eucalyptus prevent the trees from quickly establishing and can completely stop them from growing.
