Eucalyptus Plant Care

In 2025 people are thinking about their health more than ever. Natural remedies and plants often get talked about, and Eucalyptus is always popular. Here is our complete guide to caring for this plant, and how to use it.

Sunlight

Eucalyptus plants prefer areas that receive 8 to 10 hours of full bright sun. If your eucalyptus is indoors, place it near a south-facing window so that it gets plenty of sunlight. If your eucalyptus is in your garden, be sure the soil drains very well. Likewise, if you're planting eucalyptus in a pot, use high-quality potting soil and a pot that has drainage holes to let out excess water.

Water

Water eucalyptus plant regularly. Eucalyptus plants are only partially drought-tolerant once their roots are established. Water regularly to prevent their leaves from drooping and falling off. If your Eucalyptus is outdoors, place a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to help retain moisture.

Humidity

They like any environment. Average household humidity will do just fine

Fertilizer: Fertilize your houseplants! Outdoor eucalyptus rarely needs fertilizer, but your indoor eucalyptus can benefit from liquid fertilizer every few weeks during the spring.

Upkeep: Prune eucalyptus plants as you see fit. The best way to keep that growth in check, and keep the plant healthy, is to regularly prune and shape it.

Eucalyptus Plant Information

Eucalyptus is a member of the myrtle family, Myrtaceae. The majority of eucalyptus species come from Australia, while a few other species are native to Philippines and Malaysia.

Eucalyptus has always been used for decoration, woodworking, and very popular for medicines. It is known for its menthol-like fragrance, which comes from essential oils that are present in all parts of the plant.

Most species of this plant lose their leaves in the cold or dry seasons. 

Eucalyptus Benefits and Uses

Most people will recognize the scent of eucalyptus, but many don’t realize that this evergreen tree also has a wide variety of uses. Humans and Koala bears tend to use this plant most often, and in different ways.

Eucalyptus oils and essential extracts are commonly found in over-the-counter drugs, and other forms of medicines. Concentrated eucalyptus oil can be toxic when consumed, so please keep it away from pets and children. 

Using Eucalyptus in the Shower

Hanging eucalyptus in the shower allows you to breathe in the deep, minty aroma as it mixes with the steam. It is a distinct scent that releases your stress and helps you wind down.

It is common that people elevate their shower experience by hanging a bundle of eucalyptus stems from their shower head. Eucalyptus has shown to help with upper respiratory issues, which is why Eucalyptus essential oil is often an active ingredient in over-the-counter chest rubs and used with humidifiers.

Hanging eucalyptus in the shower allows the steam the release essential oils in the eucalyptus plant, which can aid in relieving congestion and inflammation related to sinus and bronchial infections.

Planting Eucalyptus 

When planting eucalyptus in Canada or the USA, choose a cold-hardy variety. Select a sunny location with well-draining soil, as eucalyptus plants prefer drier conditions and don't tolerate waterlogged soil.

Dig a hole twice as wide and as deep as the root ball, and loosen the surrounding soil to promote root growth. Place the plant in the hole with the root ball at soil level, backfill, and water thoroughly.

Water regularly during the first season, but avoid overwatering. Consider growing eucalyptus in pots so they can be moved indoors during harsh winters.

Common Issues With Eucalyptus Plants

Eucalyptus tree remain relatively healthy when in their preferred environment, which admittedly is hard to replicate in Canada. In suboptimal conditions they can start to show certain issues. If caught early, there is no worry.


Leaves turning brown on a eucalyptus plant is usually a sign of too little moisture in the soil. Eucalyptus plants enjoy a lot of water, and a lot of sun.

Brown leaves is likely the issue if your leaves are curling or dropping. In this case, supply your plant with more water, and keep the soil moist but not soggy.

Is a Eucalyptus Plant Safe for Cats?

Eucalyptus plants are not pet friendly. Most pets will start to nibble and experience mouth irritation and stop. This is the same for eucalyptus plants and dogs as well. If your pet continues to eat the plant they will feel nauseous and possibly start to vomit.

We recommend that all plants be kept away from pets and children. Other than eating plants, kids and pets can knock them over, so please keep them high up, and away from issues.

Frequently Asked Questions About Eucalyptus

Is eucalyptus a good indoor plant?

How does eucalyptus smell?

Where should eucalyptus be placed in the house?

The plants themselves should be placed in an area that receives the brightest light and the longest light. Try to get at least 10 hours of light every day for a healthy plant.

Can eucalyptus plants survive winter?

Eucalyptus plants cannot withstand temperatures below -13°C. At those temperatures more than 50 percent of the plants' cells will be irreparably damaged and would almost certainly kill the plant.

How toxic is eucalyptus for dogs?

My Favorite Face Mask for Hydrated, Glowing Skin
Scent: Collagen, Size: 4 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried a lot of face masks over the years, but the BIODANCE Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask has easily become my favorite. Every time I use it, my skin feels incredibly hydrated, smooth, and refreshed, and the results last much longer than I expected from a single mask treatment. One of the things I love most about this mask is how deeply moisturizing it is. After wearing it overnight, my skin looks noticeably plumper and feels soft and nourished. Instead of just giving a temporary boost, I’ve found that the healthy glow lasts well beyond the next day. In my experience, my skin maintained a radiant, hydrated appearance for nearly two weeks after use, which is something I haven’t experienced with many other masks. The hydrogel material feels comfortable on the skin and stays in place well throughout the night. When I remove it in the morning, my skin looks brighter, more refreshed, and noticeably more hydrated. I appreciate that this mask feels like a true self-care treatment rather than just another skincare step. Whether I’m preparing for a special event or simply giving my skin some extra attention, this is the mask I consistently reach for. The fact that it comes in a multi-pack makes it even better because I always like having one available when my skin needs a boost. Overall, this is one of the few skincare products that I continue to repurchase because I genuinely notice a difference. If you’re looking for a mask that delivers intense hydration, plumping benefits, and a beautiful long-lasting glow, I highly recommend giving this one a try.I’m

Instant Glass Skin!
Scent: Collagen, Size: 4 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried SO many sheet masks and this collagen one is genuinely one of the best. My skin looked insanely hydrated, smooth, and glowy after just one use. It fit my face really well, stayed soaked the entire time, and didn’t leave that sticky feeling afterward. The next morning my skin still felt soft and looked brighter. Perfect before events or whenever your skin needs a reset. Definitely repurchasing!!

Absolutely amazing masks!!!
Scent: Collagen, Size: 4 Count (Pack of 1)
These masks are beyond amazing! I use one once a week and leave it on overnight after completing my p.m. skincare routine and wake up to smooth, plump, moisturized, and absolutely glowing!! I have extremely sensitive skin and eyes and these masks do not bother me at all. No burning in my eyes and no irritation of the skin. My deep wrinkles seem a lot less pronounced and some of my more fine lines almost disappear for 24 hours after using this mask. They are simple to use and adhere to the skin perfectly even after applying serums and moisturizers. Once the mask is completely absorbed and becomes clear it peels of the skin with ease. Based on the quality of these masks I am shocked by the low price, it is such a great value for your money. This Mask has become a staple in my skincare routine and I will continue to purchase these!!

instantly more hydrated + glowy skin
Scent: Collagen, Size: 4 Count (Pack of 1), Scent: Collagen, Size: 4 Count (Pack of 1)
I love this mask. It’s one of those products you can actually see a difference with right after using it. It really helps with: 1. Deep hydration – my skin feels plump and moisturized, not dry or tight 2. Smoother texture – it softens everything and makes my skin feel really smooth 3. Glow/brightness – gives that fresh, healthy glow without looking greasy How I use it: I apply it on clean skin (usually at night), leave it on as directed, and let it fully absorb before removing. I like using it when my skin feels dull or dry and want a quick reset. Overall, it’s super easy to use and makes my skin look more refreshed every time. Definitely a go-to for me.
