The Eucalyptus gunnii ‘Azura’ tree, is a dwarf Cider Gum that is a perfect for adding year-round interest and an aromatic fragrance to small spaces.
The beautiful silvery, blue foliage is wonderful to admire all year round but looks particularly pretty in winter. In addition to the interesting foliage, the stems have an attractive silver colour that, as the bark peels off, reveals shades of cream and olive green. Throughout the summer and autumn, small white, fragrant pom-pom shaped fluffy flowers are a delightful feature that appear as the plant matures. These then change to charming woody olive-green fruit pods in autumn.
This tree offers a host of ornamental features to admire, and its compact size makes it is an excellent choice for small spaces such as city and courtyard areas. It also works well in a large container positioned on a patio or decking area. In addition to this, its magnificent foliage looks wonderful as a cut flower display to enjoy around the home.
To get the most from this Eucalyptus gunnii ‘Azura’ Tree, ensure it is planted in moist and well-drained soil, in a position of full sun. Try to find a sheltered spot, as this helps to protect young foliage from the cold winds.
