Eucalyptus annulata is a versatile tree with a height range of 1.5-8m and a canopy width of up to 7m. The bark is smooth, oily, and can vary in color from grey-green to red-brown, while the branchlets have angular shapes and pith oil glands. The leaves are glossy green and narrowly lanceolate in shape.
The tree produces cream, white, or yellow flowers from June to December.

It can grow well in full sun and most well-drained soils, and is able to tolerate coastal and dry conditions. Additionally, it is frost tolerant.

Occurs naturally in the region of Fitzgerald, Katanning, Merredin, Southern Jarrah Forest and Western Mallee in Western Australia.

Although seed can be sown most of the year around if you avoid the coldest and hottest months of the year, the best time to sow is generally spring.

  • The grow mix should be free draining preferably with some organic compost well mix through. This will replicate the soil they require in nature.
  • Potting mix is not recommended.
  • Sow fine seeds on the surface and cover lightly with the grow mix, do not bury the seed deeply.
  •  For larger seed sow to a depth of the seed size.
  • Water with a fine mist spray to avoid disturbance of the seed.

Germination generally occurs in around 10-28 days at a soil temperature of 18-22°C

*Please note:

  • Please do not be too hasty to discard seeds that do not germinate; seeds will often lay dormant until the conditions are similar to their natural germination requirements.
  • As with all seeds, they must have adequate water to germinate; keep them moist but not too wet.
  • These growth notes are provided as guidance only and do not guarantee successful germination.
  • The customer should do their due diligence that they are suited to their region
