Silver Dollar Eucalyptus, is a fast growing tree with attractive bark. It is resistant to drought and heat. In Quebec, it is used as a houseplant. Its blue-green leaves give off a delicious scent thanks to the oil they contain. Resistant to disease, it requires little maintenance. Full sun exposure and well-drained soil are recommended for optimal growth. The branches also make excellent cuttings, ideal for floral arrangements and for scenting the home. It can be moved outside during the summer season, as long as it is brought inside in time when cool weather sets in. Prior acclimatization is essential to avoid sunburn. This Eucalyptus can also act as a natural insect repellent, including mosquitoes and fleas, due to the oils produced in its leaves.
