Eucalyptus - Eucalyptus pulchella (syn. E. linearis) - developed specimens
Eucalyptus pulchella - spectacular endemic variety from Tasmania, which impresses with its silver-blue foliage. The leaves are thin and long, delicate, and at maturity reach a length of up to 12 cm, with a width of approx. 1 cm. It is an easy-to-grow, compact, well-branched shrub, green all year round, with fast development and high resistance to low temperatures.
Eucalyptus is naturally a good repellent for flies and mosquitoes, which is why it is often grown on terraces or in gardens. Due to its resistance, it is also used as a forest curtain, to cover fences, etc.
The foliage is frequently used in flower arrangements and bouquets, due to its specific appearance and fragrance - the plants are cut several times a year, and then they branch out quickly. In some countries, this variety is grown and massively exploited for its hard wood that can be used in construction, for furniture or as fuel. The sap extracted from this tree is a good natural insecticide and repellent.
Other known names: Eucalyptus linearis (synonym), White Peppermint

Recommendation : We recommend that you plant the eucalyptus in the garden or in large pots, placed outside during the summer. It is an outdoor plant and does not behave well in the long term in small pots. Do not expose the plant to strong sunlight before planting.
