It grows naturally in cold Victorian gullies where frost settles, so it is a sound choice for the Dandenongs, central Victoria, the Adelaide Hills and Tasmania. No winter protection is needed once the tree is in the ground and growing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eIs it evergreen or deciduous?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eEvergreen. It holds foliage all year, so the silver-grey colour and the screening value stay through winter. Older leaves drop steadily rather than all at once, so expect some leaf litter beneath the canopy year round. The rough bark is persistent rather than shedding, so you avoid the bark drop of a smooth-barked gum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eWhere does it grow best in Australia?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eIt is at home in cool temperate and temperate southern Australia. Victoria is its heartland, and it also performs in the Adelaide Hills, Tasmania, the ACT and the cooler tablelands of New South Wales. It is less suited to humid subtropical coasts and to the hot dry inland, where other eucalypts do better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.25);padding:18px 0;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"font-weight:500;cursor:pointer;line-height:1.4;padding-right:12px;font-size:16px;color:currentColor;\"\u003eHow do I care for Mealy Stringybark?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0;line-height:1.7;color:currentColor;opacity:0.85;\"\u003eWater deeply once a week through the first two summers, then only in prolonged dry spells. Mulch out to the drip line and keep the trunk clear. It needs no fertiliser in reasonable soil. Prune in the first few years to set a single leader and remove low limbs, then largely leave it alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Evergreen Trees Direct","offers":[{"title":"40cm\/45L","offer_id":43498763256007,"sku":"EUCCEP40C40cm\/45L","price":280.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100L","offer_id":44274703892679,"sku":"EUCCEP100L","price":700.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/4945\/4279\/files\/Eucalyptuscephalocarpa40cm_45L_2.png?v=1776238322"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/4945\/4279\/collections\/AVOID_POOLSIDE.png?v=1765360012","url":"https:\/\/www.evergreentrees.com.au\/collections\/plants-to-avoid-poolside.oembed?page=4","provider":"Evergreen Trees Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
