• THE LANGUAGE OF EUCALYPTUS 

    Eucalyptus is a genus of 700 species of flowering trees.

    The Eucalyptus tree is native to Australia but due to the variety of species, they can be found in many different places. For example, some grow in the desert and others grow in rainforests.

    The name eucalyptus comes from the Greek word 'eu’, meaning ‘beautiful’ and 'kalyptos' meaning hat because the stamens and pistils together resemble a hat.

    Eucalyptus is the perfect filler for bouquets due to a variety of reasons. When cut it is hypoallergenic and also deters insects from going on the flowers.


    Eucalyptus's deep rich green hue creates the perfect contrast against colourful flowers. It also adds a delightful scent to a bouquet.
