Eucalyptus gunnii 'Glacier' (Glacier Cider Gum) is a compact, intensely fragrant ornamental shrub or small tree prized for its stunning metallic silvery-blue, rounded juvenile foliage.
Key Features
Appearance: Features small, waxy, round blue-gray leaves arranged in opposite pairs, giving it a modern, airy silhouette.
Fragrance: Crushed leaves or cut stems release a strong, refreshing, classic eucalyptus scent.
Growth: Fast-growing during the summer months, though it stays much more compact than the species type, especially when container-grown or pruned.
Toxicity: Toxic to cats, dogs, and other household pets if ingested.
Light: Requires full sun to very bright, direct light (such as a south or west-facing window) to maintain its vibrant silver-blue color.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist during growing seasons, watering when the top inch or two begins to dry. Never let it sit in standing water, but avoid prolonged dryness.
Soil: Needs light, rich, and exceptionally well-draining soil (mix potting soil with perlite or coarse sand).
Pruning: Regular tip pruning encourages bushier, compact growth and produces more of the decorative rounded juvenile leaves
