Probably the most recognisable of Australian trees the Eucalyptus or gum tree has many species that come in a variety of sizes and colours according to their environment. Wielding a distinctive scent, the oil and leaves of the gum tree have been used in medicine and aromatherapy to promote good health and cleansing. On warm days Eucalyptus groves have been known to produce a blue haze or mist caused by the high oil content in the leaves and vaporizing organic compounds. The iconic Blue Mountain ranges in New South Wales is named after this process.
Our silvery blue- green colourway "Blue Gum" encapsulates the peace and purity of these beautiful and stalwart trees.
Please Note This colourway is Dyed as Ordered if not in Stock, so there may be up to 2 weeks delay till posted.
