Flowering Months

Unlike many of its vigorous cousins, this compact Cider Gum has a naturally compact and bushy growth habit. The blue-grey foliage is curiously rounded and reflects the light with its silvery hues, adding evergreen colour and interest to mixed borders. It associates beautifully silver-leaved shrubs and blue-flowered perennials, and is prized by florists for adding to flower arrangements. Eucalyptus gunnii ‘Azura’ is exceptionally hardy, coping with temperatures as low as -20C (-4F). This outstanding variety is perfect for smaller gardens where most Eucalyptus plants would prove unmanageable. Height: 5m (16'). Spread: 2.5m (8').

How to Grow

Plant eucalyptus trees into any fertile, non alkaline, free draining soil that does not dry out. Choose a position in full sun with shelter from cold winds.

For more information and guidance check out our Gardening Guides.

More Info

Feed and water eucalyptus trees regularly until fully established. Once established, eucalyptus trees are reasonably drought tolerant and will require less attention. Unless it is intended as a specimen tree, Eucalyptus will need regular pruning in early spring to restrict its vigorous growth. Cut back all stems to 3 buds above soil level or to a permanent low framework.
