MBN 5Gal Eucalyptus 'Moon Lagoon'

a hybrid seed strain of a Western Australian mallee (very tall shrub or short, multistemmed tree) of arguable species affiliation. It has become suddenly popular here for its very attractive compact juvenile foliage, which is light silver grey to almost blue-white. The compact sprays form a very soft-textured, evenly shaped, rounded shrublet to about 4-6' tall by 3-5' across. If not cut back it grows into a multistemmed tree 12' tall by 8' wide, with long, narrow, slightly sickle-shaped green leaves. Flowers are small, held in crowded clusters along the mature branches and open in late summer and early fall. This plant is nice grown up but still much better juvenile, we think you also will like it best when kept cut back. Sun, most soils, tolerates winter inundation if not stagnant than and its grown dry in summer. Used commercially as cut foliage. Frozen to the ground at around 20-25F but will usually resprout from lower temps. USDA zone 9/Sunset zones 8-9, 14-24.
