Lemon Eucalyptus

Lemon Eucalyptus is an annual plant (often grown as such in our climates) appreciated for its fine, fragrant foliage that gives off a fresh lemon scent. Ideal in pots, planters or flower beds, it brings a light, decorative and aromatic touch to arrangements in addition to being a mosquito repellent plant.

Growth: Fast-growing, it forms upright, well-branched plants that can reach approximately 40 to 80 cm in height and up to 40 cm in spread.

Flowers: Rare flowering in annual cultivation. The foliage remains the main element of interest.

Light: Prefers full sun for dense, fragrant foliage.

Watering: Requires moderate watering. Allow the substrate to dry slightly between waterings. Tolerates drought well once established.

Fertilizer: Apply an ornamental plant fertilizer occasionally to support vigorous growth.
