The word eucalyptus is derived from the Greek meaning “well covered” referring to the flower buds, which are covered with a lidded, cup-like, tough outer membrane. This membrane is flung off as the flower blooms, revealing the woody fruit containing many eucalyptus tree seeds.
How long does it take to grow eucalyptus from seed?
DAYS TO GERMINATION: 14-21 days at 65-75°F (18-24°C). SOWING: Transplant (recommended): Sow seed into cell trays or open flats 10-12 weeks before last frost. Cover seeds lightly with fine vermiculite.
How do eucalyptus trees reproduce?
These species flower in winter and are pollinated by birds. “The colour is the stamens — the male part of the flower.” The flowering cycle also differs between species, with some flowering longer than others.
