Common name : Eucalyptus, silver dollar tree, argyle apple
This evergreen tree can grow to nearly 60 feet high in its natural Australian environment. But when planting eucalyptus in home gardens, it usually remains small at around 6 to 10 feet high. It features reddish-brown bark that peels on the smaller branches. The leaves are a silvery to blue-green color, and they give off the plant’s distinct menthol-like fragrance when bruised.
Eucalyptus likes a lot of light, so settle your plant somewhere in your landscape that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.
