:: Myrtaceae :: EUCALYPTUS :: gunnii
  • Type of products available: 1/0A5, 1/1P9

Main asset

Evergreen aromatic tree, very resistant to drought, autumnal flowering. Characteristic bluish foliage, light.

Remarks

The tree can also be easily pruned back, thus forming a multi-stem bush that keeps its juvenile foliage (opposite, more rounded and bluish leaves).

Of Tasmanian origin, this Eucalyptus is one of the hardiest species. Of very rapid growth, it can form a tree more than 15 m high in ten years. Evergreen, its shadow is light, and especially its bark remains white to almond green, hence its ornamental interest.
