Eucalyptus gunnii 'Azura' (Pot Size 3L) Cider Gum sold by Boma Garden Centre

A striking compact form of Cider Gum, Eucalyptus gunnii ‘Azura’ is prized for its intense silvery-blue rounded juvenile foliage that provides year-round ornamental interest. Young leaves display a distinctive rose-pink and silver-white coloring; mature foliage gradually transitions to blue-green lance-shaped leaves, though the bushy branching habit persists.Fragrant white flowers appear mid-summer into autumn, followed by decorative gum nuts. Hardy to -15°C and exceptionally low maintenance, this cultivar establishes readily in full sun with well-drained soil and thrives on moisture-retentive clays as readily as free-draining gravels.Slower-growing and more compact than the species, ‘Azura’ reaches approximately 4-5m tall by 2-2.5m wide after 10 years, making it ideal for gardens of modest size, hedging, specimen planting, or container-growing with regular pruning to encourage juvenile foliage retention.
