Propagation
Surface sow fresh seed during spring in a well-drained media, and maintain a temperature of 16º to 18º C. (61º to 64º F). Prick out and pot up when they are large enough to handle then grow on before planting out. 

Note: Eucalyptus and Corymbia species are fast-growing and should be planted when the young in order to establish a strong root system.

Care should be taken when selecting a site, allowing ample room for it to grow as it has vigorous invasive roots that can lift concrete and block drains. 

Botanic information
Leaf: The semi-glossy bluish grey-green broad-ovate to lanceolate concolorous juvenile leaves are up to 50 mm (2 in) wide. They have an acute apex with undulating margins and a short petiole. When crushed they have pungent odour that is similar to menthol.

Flower: The calvate to short-fusiform (club-shaped) buds are up to 6 mm (¼ in) long by 3 mm (⅛ in) wide with a scar present. The operculum is conical and shorter that the hypanthium and the outer exserted white stamens are infertile. They have a pedicle up to 4 mm (⅛ in) long and are arranged in groups of 7 in a terminal panicle with a terete peduncle up to 10 mm (⅜ in) long. They appear profusely over the tree from late winter to summer.

Fruit: The brown woody conical capsule is up to 6 mm (¼ in) wide with a thin flared rim and a descending disk with 3-4 enclosed valves. The pedestal is short and the capsules are arranged in a small cluster. They contain numerous tiny dark seeds.

General pruning information
Eucalyptus species require little pruning apart from removal of damaged or dead wood, which should be taken off at the collar. If the tree is cut back hard it will produce epicormic shoots and the crown may be lifted or thinned by removal of selected branches.
