Botany Encyclopedia

Genus : Eucalyptus

🏝️ Habitat Conditions

This plant primarily grows in Australia. It prefers well-ventilated, bright, warm, and dry locations.

🪨 Soil Mix

When planting, it's best to use well-draining soil. Generally, mix 40% potting soil, 20% bark, 20% leaf mold, 10% perlite, and 10% charcoal. However, you can adjust the ratios based on the situation and environment.

🌡️ Environment

This plant thrives at temperatures between 18-25°C. Be cautious, as it can die if exposed to temperatures below 10°C for too long. It can tolerate average humidity, but if the air is too dry and the leaves start to wither, increase humidity by misting the plant.

👀 Characteristics details

This plant has shallow and wide-spreading roots, making it susceptible to being uprooted by strong winds if planted outdoors. It's best to choose a wide pot when planting it.

☀️ Light

This plant loves a lot of sunlight, so it can be a bit challenging to care for indoors.

💧 Water

Young plants should not be overwatered or underwatered. Frequent watering can lead to overhydration, while insufficient water can cause the leaves to dry out. It's best to water when the soil is dry. Keep the soil moist and ensure good ventilation.

🌱 Propagate

Stems longer than 10 cm can be propagated through cuttings, though success rates are not high. For water propagation: 1. Avoid using transparent containers. Place the stem in water, and once roots appear, add hydroponic fertilizer. When roots reach 5-7 cm, transfer to soil. For soil propagation: 1. Plant the cutting deeply in soil without fertilizer. After propagation, avoid exposing the plant to bright light. Gradually increase light exposure to help it adapt. Maintain high humidity and keep the temperature between 18-25°C.

🪴 Repot

Repot healthy plants every 1-2 years in spring, as they tend to grow quickly.

💊 Fertilize

Fertilizer is rarely needed. If the plant's growth becomes poor compared to before, using fertilizer at the recommended amount from spring to summer can promote more vigorous growth.

😵 Toxicity

Be cautious with pets and young children as it is toxic.
