Cider Gum (Eucalyptus gunnii)

The Cider Gum, Eucalyptus gunnii is a beautiful medium sized Eucalypt from Tassie. These tough as hell little guys have a charming rounded, silver-blue, aromatic foliage as a juvenile. This changes to a blue-green and lance shaped foliage as it matures. 

They produce many small clusters of white fluffy flowers throughout the summer months. 

Watering

Water it as you would most indoor plants, that is when the top 2-3 cm of soil in the pot dries out. The period between watering should increase through the colder months as it will take longer for the top few cm of soil to dry. If in doubt hold back on the watering as they are very tolerant of drought conditions, like most Aussie natives, but what it won't handle too well is soggy soil.

Position

To grow well indoors these dudes require bright light so place them within range of a north facing window. Alternatively, position them close to a south facing window to allow them sun throughout the day.

Managing growth

They are currently approximately 25cm tall however they are a medium sized woodland tree in the wild. As such, they will eventually require a place outdoors unless you are happy to chop a hole in your roof! They will perform well as a balcony plant and can be kept on the smaller side if limited by a pot. If you have the space they also could eventually make an excellent feature tree in the back yard.

Greeting your Cider Gum when it arrives

These plants are shipped in a 1.5L nursery pot that is wrapped in a calico bag to keep the soil in during transport. They will fit any pot from our Classic Pot Range.

Your plants will enjoy a comfortable trip directly from our greenhouse to your door in just a few of days. Your plant will not have to deal with the stress of being bare rooted for transport (how most plants are sent) and you won’t have to deal with the mess and fuss of potting up your new plant when you receive it.

Stability Support

The plastic pot will be wrapped in a calico bag to keep the soil in place, it will then be tied into a specially designed cardboard insert which will keep it stable and upright throughout its journey. The insert will be glued in place on top of your cardboard wrapped ceramic pot to hold it down and your plant up!

No Re-Potting

Your plant will come in its plastic pot which we make sure fits perfectly in whichever ceramic pot you choose. Our packaging has been designed to allow us to send your beautiful ceramic pot along with your plant, fully potted, yep in soil, together in the same box.
