{"product_id":"eucalipt-eucalyptus-rubida","title":"Eukaliptus - Eucalyptus rubida (Cab Sav)","description":"\u003cp\u003eEucalyptus rubida - a striking variety native to Australia, notable for its silvery-blue foliage. Unlike other varieties, it has narrower and more elongated leaves, with red edges and pointed tips. The young stems are also reddish. It is an easy-to-grow shrub, compact, well-branched, evergreen, with rapid growth and high resistance to low temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEucalyptus naturally acts as a good repellent for flies and mosquitoes, which is why it is often grown on terraces or in gardens. Due to its hardiness, it is also used as a windbreak, for covering fences, and so on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foliage is frequently used in floral arrangements and bouquets because of its appearance and distinctive scent – the plants are pruned several times a year and then branch out quickly. In some countries, this variety is widely cultivated and harvested for its hardwood, which can be used in construction, for furniture pieces, or as fuel. \u003cstrong\u003eThe sap extracted from this tree is a good insecticide and natural repellent, also having antiseptic effects – although it is toxic if ingested, it is a common ingredient in insecticides, plant protection treatments, deodorants, and creams for treating wounds.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt does not require special soil and is resistant to diseases and pests, being naturally considered \"pest free.\" It withstands temperatures down to -18 °C without needing winter protection.
