Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus is one of the most popular greens for cut flower bouquets and drying. Its signature scent and unmistakable silvery-green foliage make it a beautiful addition. It looks wonderful on its own in a vase or as a filler in various floral arrangements. Some varieties also surprise with a strong lemon fragrance or unusual leaf shapes. In our climate, it is primarily grown as a container plant. During the summer, you'll make it happiest by placing it on a sunny terrace or balcony, where it grows quickly in the fresh air. Before the first frosts arrive, the plant needs to be moved to a bright, frost-free space to overwinter safely. You can then use the trimmed branches to create long-lasting and fragrant home decor.
