Aromatic and intensely graphic, the 'Silver Dollar' Gum stands out as a masterpiece of modern botanical design. Its stunning juvenile leaves, perfectly round and coated in a waxy silvery blue, mimic the shape of large coins threaded onto flexible stems. This variety diffuses a purifying essential oil fragrance while bringing an irresistible, wispy lightness to your summer or indoor décor.
Characteristics
- Foliage: Waxy, round, opposite, and sessile leaves displaying a highly luminous metallic grey-blue coloration.
- Fragrance: Emits a powerful menthol and eucalyptus aroma as soon as the foliage is lightly brushed.
- Habit: Upright, bushy to tree-like, showcasing a graceful silhouette with slightly arching branches.
- Light: Demands maximum exposure under full sun to preserve the brilliance of its silvery hue.
- Usage: Grown as a splendid container annual for the patio or as a temporary indoor plant in very sunny spaces.
Use
- Style & Placement: Elevate your patio décor, enhance a sunny balcony, or position it near a large south-facing window in the living room.
- Decorative Benefits: Its rigid, structural branches represent the ultimate selection as a cut flower to design minimalist fresh or dried bouquets.
Care & Success
- Watering: Water generously as soon as the soil surface begins to dry out. This eucalyptus drinks heavily during active growth but hates waterlogged roots. Never leave standing water in the saucer.
- Potting Soil: Requires a light, loose, neutral to slightly acidic mix that drains perfectly. A blend of high-quality potting soil mixed with a healthy amount of perlite or coarse sand is ideal.
- Pruning: Regularly pinch back stem tips to encourage dense branching and maintain the round juvenile foliage that creates its unique charm.
- Acclimatization: If moving it to the patio for summer, gradually acclimate it in the shade for a few days to prevent direct sun rays from scorching the leaves. Since it is not winter-hardy in Quebec, bring it indoors before autumn's first frost.
- Toxicity: Keep strictly out of reach of pets and children (the essential oil concentrated within its tissues is toxic if swallowed).

I feel as though they simplified a lot of the information, as common sense could tell you things such as time commitment to law school and to work with your professors in the case of an emergency

Good choice to teach kids to be well-mannered at Memorial Day.
Format: Hardcover
The book starts with the 13 colonies each with their own flag. Then it discusses the Revolutionary war and the story of Betsy Ross with the qualifier that It says no one really knows who sewed the first flag. Then it discusses Francis Scott Key and the bombardment of Fort McHenry. Then how a star is added for each state added to the union. Mentions the Civil War and raising the flag on Iwo Jima. After that it has two pages on protocol for displaying and honoring the flag, and gives the pledge of allegiance. It is a good choice to teach kids to be well-mannered at parades and Memorial Day services.
The cover art depicts a series of historical flags, not all of which are mentioned in the book which raises the question “Why?”. Starting at the back is the red Saint George’s Cross on a white field. Saint George the dragon slayer is the patron saint of England. The plain cross without the centered crown is the flag of England. This flag is shown on page 2 as the flag of one of the colonies but it doesn’t say which.
In front of that is the flag of Maryland Colony which is still used as their state flag.
Next in line is the coiled rattle snake Don’t Tread on Me flag. According to my Compton’s Encyclopedia, this originated with Esek Hopkins the first US Navy commander in chief and was used from 1776 to 1778. Colonel Christopher Gadsden presented a copy of this flag to the South Carolina legislature, so it is often referred to as the Gadsden flag but this is incorrect. The rattle snake image was used in 1775 by the minute men of Culpepper County Virginia. The image was widespread in the revolution and may have been used earlier than that. The snake is portrayed with 13 rattles, one for each colony. Rattle snakes will not initiate an attack on humans as we are too big to eat, but if stepped on they will counter attack and can be deadly. The point of the image is that the colonists did not want war, but would not tolerate abuse. (There is a rumor that this flag is connected to the slave trade, but Hopkins was from Rhode Island which was not part of the Confederacy, and I have not found any evidence to support this rumor).
Next is the flag of New England which has the Saint George cross with a Pine Tree on a blue field. This flag was used at the battle of Bunker Hill. Normally the New England flag has a red field, but blue was substituted because the red caused confusion with the British Royal Navy ensign which has a Union Jack in the top left on a red field. Naval ensigns are designed to be highly visible at distance or in the smoke of battle. The bright red field is more visible than the Union Jack alone. The Union Jack is the national flag of the United Kingdom.
Next is the Union Jack on a field of thirteen stripes. This is the first flag of the thirteen colonies. It was used in 1775 and 1776 as the flag of the continental army and navy but never officially adopted.
Next is the Betsy Ross flag, followed by the Fort McHenry flag, and the modern flag. I hope this helps.

No progressive agenda! Perfect kids book!
Format: Hardcover
I'm a homeschooling parent of a kindergartener. As part of our social studies curriculum, I have been introducing the Pledge of Allegiance and the anthem, and I wanted to find a book that would go a little further into how the flag came to be and why we stand to say the Pledge, and this was the perfect book! It's written with great accuracy and at a child's level. There is also no progressive agenda, as I had discovered with some of the other kids books on the subject. It also lists when and how you are to stand for the flag, and has the Pledge printed in it. Would definitely recommend!
