Eucalyptus Silver Drop

Fill your flower arrangements with fragrant, frosty green eucalyptus stems. Full branches make a beautiful, long-lasting, floral accent. Multi-branched stems filled with frosty green, rounded leaves with the unmistakable menthol-like fragrance of eucalyptus are wondrous in table-top arrangements and bouquets, fresh or dried. Eucalyptus is widely used in aromatherapy, potpourri, crafts, and as a pest deterrent in the garden. Perennial in USDA zones 9–11; also grown as an annual. As an annual, plants reach about 18"– 42", but in areas where it is a hardy perennial, it can become a 30'-tall tree over time. Drought tolerant once established and rarely bothered by pests. Deer resistant.
