Thompson and Morgan Eucalyptus Gunnii Azura 9cm Plant Pot 3 Pack

Discover the allure of Eucalyptus gunnii ‘Azura’, a refined eucalyptus tree perfect for gardens of all sizes. Appreciate the year-round display of its evergreen, silvery-blue foliage, which shimmers and reflects light, bringing a unique touch to your borders. Compact and bushy, unlike more vigorous varieties, this tree is ideal for smaller gardens. Exceptionally hardy, this tree thrives in temperatures as low as -20°C (-4°F) and complements other shrubs and perennials beautifully. Florists favour its long stems and attractive leaves, making it easy to create stunning indoor arrangements. For planting, choose fertile, non-alkaline, free-draining soil that retains moisture, in a sunny location sheltered from cold winds. Regular watering and fertilising are needed until the tree is established, after which it becomes drought-tolerant and requires minimal upkeep. To manage its vigorous growth if not grown as a specimen tree, prune regularly in early spring, cutting back all stems to three buds above soil level or a permanent low structure.
