The 'Baby Blue' eucalyptus is the dwarf form of the Pulverulenta eucalyptus. It is dense and small in size, and is most fragrant and popular. It should be grown under intense lighting, even direct sun, and the soil should be allowed to dry out between waterings, but never completely. It needs high relative humidity, so it could benefit from a bed of clay beads. We should not hesitate to prune the ends of the stems which have dried, this will allow the plant to branch.
