Product Description
Short answer: a faux eucalyptus tree at 44 in, one size only, in a black pot. It carries 1,440 leaves on adjustable stems — the highest leaf count in our eucalyptus range.
Eucalyptus is bought for its colour and its round, silvery leaf shape, not for sheer green mass — that is the whole appeal of the species. At 44 in this is a low floor piece or a large tabletop one, sized for a console table, a bathroom corner or a spot beside a chair rather than a room's centrepiece.
The tree carries 1,440 leaves on adjustable stems, set in a black pot, with an overall footprint of 25 in by 20 in at 44 in tall. That's the highest leaf count across our eucalyptus range, and no assembly is required out of the box.

Artificial eucalyptus tree, or a real one?
| This tree | Live eucalyptus | |
|---|---|---|
| Light required | None | Full sun for most of the day. Few Canadian interiors supply it. |
| Typical indoor result | Fixed appearance, colour may lighten in direct sun over years | Dries out and drops leaves within weeks indoors — the reason most indoor eucalyptus decor is preserved or artificial rather than living |
| Colour | Fixed, moulded colour | The reason people buy the species: a silvery bloom on a round leaf |
| Cost, year five | Nothing further | Repeatedly replaced, since it will not survive a Canadian winter indoors |
| Scent | None | Genuine and strong when a leaf is crushed — the actual reason florists sell it |
| Maintenance | Occasional dusting | Frequent watering and humidity management, with a short life expectancy regardless |
The honest case for the real thing is scent, not longevity indoors: fresh or preserved cut eucalyptus from a florist holds its colour and fragrance for weeks and is the actual competitor to a tree like this one, far more than a rooted living tree ever is.
What arrives in the box, and what do I have to do to it?
This tree ships with its stems folded in against the centre rather than a full canopy already spread out, and opening it out by hand is not optional. With 1,440 leaves on adjustable stems and no branch-socket assembly to do, budget roughly fifteen to twenty minutes working from the bottom stems upward and giving each one its own angle rather than leaving them bunched together. A warm room speeds this up noticeably — stems that have sat in a cold truck or garage are stiffer and slower to reshape than ones that have had an hour indoors first.
Inspect the black pot and the base of the stems before you accept delivery, and photograph anything damaged before you unpack further.
Who should not buy this?
- Direct outdoor sun. Best suited to indoor use; for spots with strong, unbroken sun, choose a UV-rated model instead.
- Anyone who actually wants eucalyptus's scent. That is the strongest reason to buy fresh or preserved eucalyptus stems from a florist instead of a floor tree like this one — artificial foliage carries no fragrance at all.
Common questions
How many leaves does this artificial eucalyptus tree have?
1,440 leaves on adjustable stems, the highest leaf count across our eucalyptus range. Leaf count is not a standardised industry figure, so treat it as a useful comparison point rather than an absolute measure of fullness, since two trees with different leaf sizes and stem structures can carry very different counts and still look similarly full from across a room. At 44 in tall, 1,440 leaves makes for a genuinely dense small tree.
Does the tree need assembly?
No branch-socket assembly is required, though the folded stems do need opening out by hand after unboxing — budget fifteen to twenty minutes to angle each stem individually so the canopy reads as full rather than bunched.
Can real eucalyptus survive indoors instead of buying a fake one?
Not for long. Eucalyptus is a full-sun species in most climates, and cut or rooted eucalyptus indoors typically dries out and drops its leaves within a few weeks rather than settling in like an ordinary houseplant. That is exactly why eucalyptus sold for indoor decor is overwhelmingly preserved or artificial rather than living, and why a genuinely living eucalyptus floor tree indoors is a poor bet across most of Canada.
Does it come with a usable pot?
Yes, a black pot is included. The tree's own footprint is given as 25 in by 20 in at 44 in tall, which gives a sense of the base size to plan a spot for.
