Planting a Eucalyptus Tree Close to its Type
Eucalyptus Tree Care
If you’re planning to plant a Eucalyptus, there are a few things you should know. Eucalyptus trees don’t like to be disturbed, so they’ll grow better if they are planted in a spot that’s not too crowded. It also helps if the area is well-drained.
Starting with a Hole
To make sure your eucalyptus is properly planted, start with a hole that’s at least as big as the pot you’re planning to use. Then, fill it with a soil mixture. Be sure to add about three to four inches of pine straw to the bottom of the hole. You can also add a layer of mulch.
pH Level of the Soil
Once the tree has been planted, it’s a good idea to check the pH of the soil. You can use a soil pH tester probe to find out how acidic the soil is. If it’s too acidic, consider adding organic compost to the soil.
What you Should Avoid
Eucalyptus trees prefer moist, well-drained soil. In addition, you should avoid overwatering. If you do, the roots can be damaged.
Companion Plants
Eucalyptus trees are extremely decorative. They come in a wide range of species. Some grow to over 200 feet tall and produce stately evergreen foliage. Many people choose to plant them as companion plants.
Vulnerable to Drought and Heat
However, when planting a eucalyptus, be sure to choose a spot that gets plenty of sun heat. This is especially important if you’re growing it in a container. Houseplants are vulnerable to drought and heat, so make sure you water regularly during hot periods.
