to water
Although the eucalyptus azura prefers fully sunny, warm locations, it has a very low water requirement. You should water the substrate regularly, but if you fail to water it, the deciduous tree won't blame you. It looks different if you literally drown the tree. Waterlogging damages the eucalyptus azura. In the worst case, the sapling dies. Therefore, wait until the substrate has dried before the next watering. Drainage on the bucket is also recommended. If you plant the eucalyptus azura directly in the ground, you should ensure that the substrate is well drained.

Fertilize
Fertilize your eucalyptus azura every two weeks from spring to autumn with a slow release fertilizer. In winter you should give him a break.
To cut
In contrast to the common eucalyptus (Eucalyptus Globulus), the eucalyptus azura grows quite slowly. Even so, regular pruning is necessary to keep the tree looking pretty. You should remove branches that are growing transversely as well as brown and dry leaves.
Overwinter
The eucalyptus azura has the following requirements for wintering:
- A cool place with a temperature of around 13 ° C
- Reduced water supply
- Nevertheless, the substrate was always moist
- No fertilizer
Repot
If the roots are already on the surface, it is high time to repot the eucalyptus azura. Choose the next larger bucket that you fill with compost soil. It is best to repot your eucalyptus azura once a year. In the first few years, the process may even be required twice a year.
