Eucalyptus citriodora – Lemon Scented Gum Seeds | 300 Seeds | Fast Growing Fragrant Evergreen Tree

Plant a large-scale fragrant evergreen with Lemon Scented Gum (Eucalyptus citriodora), a fast-growing Australian native known for its refreshing citrus aroma, smooth exfoliating bark, and tall, elegant structure. When crushed, both juvenile and mature leaves release a strong lemon scent due to their natural citronellal-rich oils.

Young foliage is slightly rough-textured, while mature leaves become glossy, lance-shaped, and highly drought adapted. The trunk is powdery white to soft pink and sheds bark in thin patches, revealing a beautiful mottled surface beneath. In warm climates, this species can reach 75–100 feet tall, forming a slender canopy ideal for shade, windbreaks, and ornamental planting.

This 300-seed pack is ideal for bulk growing, landscape projects, greenhouse production, wind-tolerant plantings, or coastal installations.

You will receive:
✔️ 300 Eucalyptus citriodora seeds
✔️ Fast-growing aromatic evergreen tree
✔️ Lemon-scented foliage
✔️ Clearly labeled seed packet
✔️ Sowing instructions included
