The trees have 2 forms of leaves, the juvenile leaves being lanceolate up to 6 inches (15 cm) long with a rough sandpapery feel. The adult leaves are known as phyllodes and are more highly drought adapted. In fact, phyllodes do not have a traditional leaf lamina--instead the green leaf blade, in a developmental sense, is an outgrowth of the petiole. Both sets of leaves have a strong lemony scent when crushed.Blooming: Trees bloom in winter in nature, in the greenhouse they bloom in late winter to early spring. The white blooms are not very distinctive. The blooms are followed by woody urn-shaped capsules about 3/8 of an inch (5 mm) wide.Culture:Eucalyptus citriodora need full sun with a well-drained soil mix for container growing. We use a soil mix consisting of 1 part peat moss to 1 part loam to 2 parts coarse sand. Trees are well watered and allowed to dry slightly before watering again. Most gum trees grow in very nutrient poor soils and fertilizer is not needed; however we fertilize trees in container once during the spring. To control the size of the trees in containers, we do all pruning and repotting in late to early spring after flowering. During the winter months, the temperatures are never allowed to drop below 50°F (10°C) at night. In the landscape, trees are very susceptible to frost.Propagation:Eucalyptus citriodora are propagated by seed in the spring. The very small seed is surface sown on coarse sand and peat mixture and kept moist. Seeds germinate in 30-45 days at 70°F (22°C).
