The plantation
In the foothills of Snowdonia, North Wales
At Uklyptus our aim is simple—to produce the best eucalyptus foliage florists can buy anywhere, second to none.
We run a eucalyptus plantation in North Wales that was established almost fifty years ago, growing foliage for the cut flower trade.
Harvesting takes place in the winter months. In spring, as the pollarded stumps are beginning to produce shoots, huge numbers of native bluebells flower. Bluebell bulbs and seeds from our plantation can be bought from Wildwood Bluebells.
The eucalypts then grow very strongly throughout the summer.
The eucs continue growing into autumn, and are only ready to harvest when growth slows as temperatures drop.
