Eucalyptus, also known as gum tree, is a genus of over 700 species of trees, primarily found in tropical and subtropical regions, especially in Australia. Eucalyptus is distinguished by two types of leaves: juvenile plants feature round, silvery leaves, while mature trees have long, green leaves. It is widely used in floristry for its delicate appearance and refreshing scent, making it a popular addition to bouquets and floral decorations. At KvětinyExpres.cz, we love working with eucalyptus, which features in arrangements like the Gift Basket Elegance, Farmer's Bouquet, and Mixed Flower Box.
