With its beautiful silvery-blue foliage and rounded leaves, Eucalyptus gunnii ‘Blue Ice’ brings year-round colour and texture to the garden. The aromatic branches are a favourite among florists and cut-flower growers, adding a soft, muted contrast to fresh bouquets and dried arrangements. Left to grow, this evergreen eucalyptus makes an attractive feature tree, while regular pruning encourages fresh, juvenile foliage ideal for cutting.

Best for: Cut-flower gardens, floral arrangements, dried flowers, foliage and adding year-round structure to the garden.

Approx 15 Seeds

Days to Maturity

Several years to establish a mature tree. Juvenile foliage can be harvested once plants are well established.
Sowing Tips

  • Sow seeds indoors in a warm, well-lit position, ideally in spring.

  • Surface sow onto a fine seed-raising mix and press gently into the surface, as seeds need light to germinate.

  • Keep the mix consistently moist but not waterlogged.

  • Maintain a temperature of approximately 18–22°C for germination.
Growing Tips

  • Plant in full sun in free-draining soil.

  • Water regularly while young, then reduce watering once established.

  • Prune regularly to encourage fresh, rounded juvenile foliage for floral arrangements.

  • Allow plenty of room if growing as a feature tree, as eucalyptus can become substantial over time.
