Who am I?
Hello, My name is Eucalyptus Cinerea! I belong to the Myrtaceae family consisting of more than 600 different species. Because of my beautiful round green-silver leaves I am also called the Silver Dollar Tree. As I get older my leaves will become more elongated. My crushed leaves give off a menthol smell. Did you know that you can pour boiling water over a handful of leaves for a wellness scent?
Where do I come from?
I am originally from the southeastern part of Australia where I am the Koala's favorite snack.
How big will I get?
I am a medium-sized tree species and in my native country I can grow up to 30 meters tall when planted in solid soil. In a small pot I easily grow 40cm tall.
How much do I want to drink?
I like high humidity and I like to be in slightly moist soil, so water me regularly! Don't let the soil dry out, I can handle a period of drought but my leaves will wilt. I recover myself, but my withered leaves no longer do this.
Where do I want to stand and what temperatures do I like?
I usually love a lot of light, so I like to be in full sun! However, be careful when there is a very strong sun, then I can burn, especially when I stand behind the glass.
