Eucalyptus Growth Introduction

Eucalyptus trees are distributed in New Guinea, Indonesia, and the Philippine Islands, and a certain number of them are distributed in Fujian, Guangdong, Yunnan, Sichuan and other places in China.

Eucalyptus growth cycle

Most eucalyptus have wood knots at their root necks, which can store nutrients and sprout and renew. Generally, they can bloom and bear fruit 3 to 4 years after afforestation. They like light, are drought-tolerant, and are afraid of cold. They cannot tolerate temperatures below 0 degrees and can grow in various soils.

Eucalyptus growth rate

Eucalyptus grows very fast. In the peak growth season, it can grow 3 cm a day, 1 meter a month, and up to 10 meters a year. Generally, it will bloom and bear fruit 3 to 4 years after afforestation.

Eucalyptus growth cycle management

The net value of a 6-year-old eucalyptus tree is about 2,000 yuan per mu. Most of the maintenance requires that the annual temperature of the planting is above 15 degrees, and the coldest temperature cannot be lower than 7-8 degrees. When applying base fertilizer, the fertilizer cannot come into direct contact with the seedlings. Weeding should be done first and then topdressing should be done to promote the rapid growth of eucalyptus.
