The stems are great as everlastings!
A native of Australia, Silver Dollar Plant is at home in warm climates or indoors, and can be pruned to desired height. Expect it to put on as much as 8 feet of height in a single season! And in the sunny garden, it grows rapidly but is not invasive. It will eventually reach 30 feet or more high, with a tall, slender silhouette that fits well in today's smaller gardens.
To dry, simply cut the stem at the desired height and hang it upside-down in a well-ventilated, dry, somewhat cool location. The 3- to 4-inch leaves, each pierced by the central stem, are magnificent over a long time, and unlike anything else in the garden or home!
Very long-lived, this Eucalyptus asks only for good potting soil refreshed annually and adequate water. The seed germinates in light, so lay it on top of the sponge in your Bio-Dome or atop the soil in a seed flat. You will love watching this tree take shape before your eyes! Pkt is 50 seeds. Zones 8-10.
