This iconic evergreen tree, known for its aromatic leaves and elegant appearance, is a remarkable addition to any garden. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the world of Eucalyptus Gunnii, highlighting its unique attributes, the benefits it brings to your garden, and essential maintenance tips to ensure it thrives in your outdoor haven.

Appearance and Characteristics:

• Height: Eucalyptus Gunnii typically grows to a height of 30 to 40 feet (9-12 meters) but can reach up to 60 feet (18 meters) in the right conditions.
• Spread: With a spread of 15 to 25 feet (4.5-7.5 meters), it forms an impressive and statuesque tree.

Why Choose Eucalyptus Gunnii for Your Garden:

1. Aromatic Foliage: This tree is celebrated for its unique, silvery-blue, and highly aromatic leaves. Crush a leaf between your fingers, and you'll experience the refreshing fragrance that Eucalyptus Gunnii is known for.

2. Fast Growth: Eucalyptus Gunnii is one of the fastest-growing trees, providing you with quick results and a sense of accomplishment in your garden.

3. Attracts Wildlife: The nectar-rich flowers of Eucalyptus Gunnii attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, contributing to a thriving ecosystem.

4. Drought Tolerance: Once established, this tree is remarkably drought-tolerant, making it suitable for water-wise landscaping.

Planting and Maintenance:

• Sunlight: Plant your Eucalyptus Gunnii in a location with full sun to partial shade, as it thrives in well-lit conditions.
• Soil: Well-draining soil is crucial for this tree. It prefers slightly acidic to neutral soil but is adaptable to various soil types.
• Watering: Water regularly during the first couple of years to establish a strong root system. Once established, it can tolerate dry spells.
• Pruning: Prune as needed to shape the tree and remove any dead or crowded branches. Eucalyptus Gunnii responds well to pruning and can be shaped into a bushier or more compact form.
• Fertilization: In most cases, this tree doesn't require frequent fertilization. A balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring may be beneficial in poor soils.
