It's Easy to Plant your Eucalyptus Tree
Step 1 - Dig Your Hole Select a site with full to partial sun and moist or well drained soil for your Eucalyptus Tree. If you're planting a hedge, mark out a visual guide by placing stakes five to six feet apart and looping string around them. Plant the trees where the stakes are and they'll grow together to make a dense privacy screen. First, dig each hole so that it is just shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. Then loosen the soil in the planting hole so the roots can easily break through. Use your shovel or try dragging the points of a pitch fork along the sides and bottom of the hole.

Step 2 - Place Your Tree Next, separate the roots of your Eucalyptus Tree gently with your fingers and position them downward in the hole. The top of the root flare, where the roots end and the trunk begins, should be about an inch above the surrounding soil. Then make sure the tree is exactly vertical in the hole. To make it just right, use a level.
Step 3 - Backfill Your Hole As you backfill the hole, apply water to remove air pockets. Remove debris like stones and grass and completely break up any dirt clumps. Water your Eucalyptus Tree again after the transplant is complete. To help retain some of that moisture, it's recommended that you place mulch around each tree to a depth of 2"-3" up to but not touching the trunk. Organic mulches such as wood chips or pine needles also help to better soil structure as they decompose.

We planted our Eucalyptus Tree in the front yard and in one year it has doubled in size. Not sure if it will grow to look like the one in the picture but it is a nice tree and as it gets large will smell nice on breezy day. I have cut a few branches off and put them in the house and months later they still have a scent to them.

This really is a fast growing tree! We planted our tree in January of last year and it was less than a foot tall, now in June of 2009 it is almost 5 feet tall. Wow, and it naturally repels fleas and ticks from your yard and it stays beautiful all year round, this is a must have tree!!!!!!

By: Elena in Driftwood, TX

I am very happy with my eucalyptus tree purchase, it survived a hot weather 109 degrees, it survived the deer! They tried to eat it, and it is standing so tall and beautiful in just one year in spite of all the adversities. I highly recommend this Eucalyptus Tree to anyone.

I have a lovely Eucalyptus in my back yard. Its quite old as its trunk is 2 to 3 feet in diameter and 25-35 feet tall as I keep it trimmed back.

By: Lynne

I always wanted to try and grow a eucalyptus tree but living in southeast PA I figured it wold not be successful. This plant has grown huge this summer! I am very pleased with the ease in growing this specimen. I will definitely purchase here again. Great healthy products.

By: Alan

Awesome Tree. The eucalyptus is growing great now. Planted it in planter for almost a year since it was small. Planted it in front garden bed corner to give height. Beautiful tree!

By: Melanie in Pine Grove, CA

The eucalyptus tree i got from you guys is the best! It stared out very small, now its like 7 feet tall and plus it does great in the snow. Where I live we get a lot of snow and last year it did wonderful. It didnt hurt it at all it just keeps getting bigger and smells great.

By: Janella in Eldora, NJ

I love my Eucalyptus tree, the aroma is increbible. It has gotten so big since we planted it. In the summer I even rub some of it on my dog to keep the bugs away.

By: Alan

I bought 3 trees, they are all doing quite well. Im actually considering adding a couple more in spring. These Eucalyptus trees branch a lot and need a stake to stay the slightest bit straight. It would be a large bush otherwise. If you have any other interesting trees, even oter Eucalyptus species, that would grow in my area then I would be interested. I like to grow unusual things.
