Description

Normally a slender upright grower, this Eucalyptus has an open form and grows up to 20'-80'. It is fairly fast growing. It sheds its bark annually with the result being a satin smooth white or dappled gray trunk. The long, gray green leaves have a sickle shape. This form is different than other species: it has vibrant, hot pink blossoms among the gray foliage from fall through winter. Eucalyptus varieties are highly combustible.

Water Saving Tip:

As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.

Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
