• What is Preserved Eucalyptus?
Preserved Eucalyptus is real foliage treated with glycerine and dye to retain its shape, colour, and scent for long-term use.
• What are the different types of Preserved Eucalyptus?
There are two main types:
-
Populus (Polyanthemos) – flat bunches with round silver-grey leaves, also called Silver Dollar Gum
-
Cinerea (Spiral) – bulkier bunches with a twisting growth pattern, ideal for filler greenery
• How long does Preserved Eucalyptus last?
Preserved Eucalyptus lasts for years when kept indoors, away from sunlight, humidity, and heat.
• What are the benefits of Preserved Eucalyptus?
It offers zero waste, keeps its natural scent, and adds texture to bouquets, centrepieces and general floral designs.
• Where does Preserved Eucalyptus come from?
Eucalyptus is native to Australia, with preserved varieties often sourced from Europe for premium quality and consistency.
• What is stabilisation by capillarity, and what is its downside?
Stabilisation by capillarity uses glycerine and dye absorbed through stems to preserve foliage, keeping it soft and vibrant. This can cause glycerine to drip in humid environments, making it unsuitable for outdoor or moist settings.
