Cincinnati Eucalyptus

[donofriojim1]

Not palm related but I have this in my palm garden. This in my Eucalyptus Neglecta. It is a little over 6 feet tall. I planted it in march,2020 as a 3ft tree from Plant Delights nursery. It has never been protected other than good sighting.  It was un phased by a winter low of 4 degrees Fahrenheit and two weeks below freezing during the arctic blast last February. Cincinnati zone 6b.

It’s surprising how tough these are. Good luck with it, it’s the favorite one I have in my garden.

Does that mean that this plant thrives on neglect?  That's a nice looking plant by the way.

Origin of Name

Eucalyptus neglecta: Latin neglectus,neglected, apparently as the species was not recognised to be distinct at first.
