Eucalyptus cinerea, commonly known as Silver Dollar Tree or Argyle Apple, is a captivating choice for garden enthusiasts and floral designers alike. This small evergreen tree or shrub, native to southeastern Australia, is renowned for its rapid growth and stunning, aromatic foliage. Within one growing season, this dynamic plant can reach heights of 6 to 10 feet, showcasing round, fragrant, silvery-blue leaves that resemble large coins, providing the perfect silvery accent to any garden or floral arrangement.

Silver Dollar Tree thrives in USDA Zones 8-11 and prefers full sun and well-drained soil. It's moderately drought-tolerant and can withstand coastal conditions, making it a versatile choice for various landscapes. In colder climates, this plant is often enjoyed as an annual or creatively grown in containers, allowing it to be moved indoors to avoid frost damage. While flowers are a rare occurrence, the plant's primary appeal lies in its striking foliage, which is often used in flower arrangements, wreaths, and for drying purposes.

It's important to exercise caution, as the plant oil is extremely toxic if ingested, and minor skin irritation may occur when handling its bark or leaves. Ideal for patios, gardens, or as a unique houseplant, Eucalyptus cinerea brings beauty and aromatic charm to any setting.
