Eucalyptus

Brief Description

Eucalyptus globulus leaves are lance-shaped, typically dark green, leathery, and often have a strong aromatic scent when crushed. Mature leaves are usually sickle-shaped or elongated, while juvenile leaves can be more rounded.

Care Instructions

Eucalyptus plants prefer full sun and well-drained soil. They are generally drought-tolerant once established but benefit from regular watering in their first few years. They can be pruned to maintain size and shape. Most species are not cold-hardy and thrive in warmer climates.
