EUCALYPTUS sepulcralis
Weeping Gum
Family: Myrtaceae
Sub-family: Myrtoideae
Characteristics: Small tree or Mallee to 3-8 m
Seed per packet: Approx. 10
An attractive slender stemmed weeping Mallee endemic to Western Australia, and has a small natural distribution in near Esperance Western Australia.
Smooth bark varying from pinkish-grey to grey it makes an ideal tree for smaller gardens with its light wispy weeping foliage that provides height without the dense shade.
The slender foliage with a silvery hue and the pale yellow to cream flowers that occur from September to February are a feature of this attractive small tree.
Prefers a light to medium well-drained soil in a sunny position, drought and frost resistant.
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
