Eucalyptus cinerea 'Silver Dollar' is an attractive small to moderately sized tree with a compact, dense crown of beautiful silvery blue foliage. It is one of the most popular eucalypts in cultivation today, due to its very striking foliage colour and that it is capable of growing in temperate regions and colder areas.
Eucalyptus Silver Dollar is a lovely plant to have in the garden or in patio pots, but as it responds really well to pruning, making it an excellent choice for cutting to add to flower arrangements or to have on display in a vase in a kitchen or bathroom.

Watering Water regularly after planting until the roots are established. Once settled in, the plant is relatively drought tolerant and usually only needs extra water during prolonged dry spells. Plants grown in containers will need more frequent watering than those growing in the ground.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in well-drained soil. Choose a position with good airflow and enough space for the plant to reach its mature size. Mulch after planting and keep the root zone free from prolonged waterlogging, particularly through winter.
