Overview
Eucalyptus ‘Azura’ is a compact evergreen eucalyptus selected for its attractive blue-grey foliage and naturally dense growth. The rounded, aromatic leaves provide year-round colour and texture, making this an excellent feature tree for contemporary gardens, Mediterranean-style planting and mixed borders.
Unlike many eucalyptus, ‘Azura’ has a more restrained habit, making it well suited to smaller gardens where space is at a premium. Its distinctive foliage also provides valuable contrast with flowering shrubs and perennials and is popular for cutting and floral arrangements.

Growing Guide
Position
Plant in a sunny, open position where it has room to develop. A sheltered location is beneficial while young plants establish, particularly in more exposed gardens.
Soil
Grow in fertile, well-drained soil. Avoid sites that remain waterlogged during winter, as good drainage is essential for healthy growth.
Watering
Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a deep root system. Once established, water only during prolonged dry periods. Container-grown specimens will require more frequent watering.
Pruning
Prune in late winter or early spring if required to maintain the desired size or encourage bushier juvenile foliage. Remove any dead or damaged branches as needed.
