PLANTING & CARE
Temperature | Prefers temperature 20 to 30 degrees C |
Water | Newly planted-Water moderately, watering thoroughly throughout the soil, but let the top third of the mixture dry out before re-watering. Trees need well-drained conditions, so do not water too soon. |
Light | Eucalyptus needs full sunlight and well-drained soil (or potting soil, if you’re growing eucalyptus in a pot). If you’re growing eucalyptus indoors, place the tree in the sunniest window, preferably south-facing |
Fertilizer | As for fertilizer, much of the eucalyptus tree information recommends against the use of fertilizer, as they do not appreciate phosphorus. Potted eucalyptus may require an occasional slow-release fertilizer (low in phosphorus). |
Pruning | pruning too near the onset of cold weather or post freezing temperatures can trigger dieback and encourage disease. |
