    Eucalyptus ‘Heart Leaf’ (Eucalyptus websteriana)

    Eucalyptus ‘Heart Leaf’ (Eucalyptus websteriana)

    Eucalyptus ‘Heart Leaf’, botanically known as Eucalyptus websteriana, is a distinctive eucalyptus variety prized for its rounded, heart-shaped juvenile foliage and soft blue-green colouring. The leaves have a delicate, almost coin-like appearance with a subtle silvery finish, making this variety especially popular for decorative indoor plants and foliage styling. Its clean form and unique leaf shape add a gentle, modern feel to bright interior spaces.

    Native to Australia, Eucalyptus websteriana naturally grows in open, sun-filled environments. When grown indoors, it is typically maintained in its juvenile form to preserve the heart-shaped foliage. While not a low-maintenance plant, it offers strong visual appeal and a light eucalyptus fragrance for plant lovers willing to provide the right growing conditions.

    Sun Requirements ▾

    Bright light is essential for Eucalyptus ‘Heart Leaf’. It thrives in bright indirect light and can tolerate several hours of gentle direct sun, particularly from a south- or west-facing window. Insufficient light often leads to weak growth, leaf drop, and reduced foliage density. Strong, consistent light is key to maintaining healthy structure indoors.

    Watering Instructions ▾

    Watering should be done when the top portion of the soil begins to dry out. Eucalyptus ‘Heart Leaf’ prefers evenly moist soil during active growth but does not tolerate waterlogged conditions. Overwatering can lead to root rot, while allowing the soil to dry out completely may result in leaf drop or stress. Watering should be reduced during the winter months when growth slows.

    Care Tips ▾

    Eucalyptus ‘Heart Leaf’ prefers a bright, airy environment with good airflow and consistent conditions. It performs best in a well-draining soil mix that allows excess moisture to pass freely, as eucalyptus roots are sensitive to prolonged wetness. Regular rotation helps promote even growth, and light pruning may be used to maintain shape indoors. This plant does best when kept in a stable location, as frequent environmental changes can cause stress.
