Eucalyptus Season

There are hundreds of varieties of eucalyptus, which means there will always be at least a few types available when you want your bouquet. If there is a specific type you are looking for, that availability may vary. For example, seeded eucalyptus has a short period between April and June where the seeds have gone to flower and will not have the expected appearance. But in general, if you're wondering, "when is eucalyptus in season", the short answer is: always.

So, check with your florist ahead of time to see what varieties of eucalyptus will be available to you when you say your vows, and pair these with other in-season wedding flowers to have an unforgettable bouquet.

What Does Eucalyptus Represent in a Wedding Bouquet?

When choosing the flowers for your wedding bouquet, many people like to consider what each stem symbolizes. Eucalyptus has long been used for medicinal purposes, and along those lines, it represents recovery and renewal. In a wedding bouquet, this translates to protection and abundance, making it a favorite accent flower for many couples.

How Many Eucalyptus Leaves Do You Need for a Bouquet?

How many eucalyptus leaves you need for a bouquet varies greatly depending on the size. As a small accent, three to five stems in a small bouquet will complement the flowers nicely, while a larger bouquet may use between ten and fifteen for a bigger, cascading effect. If eucalyptus is the arrangement's centerpiece, this number can easily go much higher, especially when multiple varieties are used.

Average Eucalyptus Bouquet Cost

As eucalyptus is typically used to accent the rest of a bouquet, the average cost of a eucalyptus wedding bouquet will vary greatly depending on the average cost of your other wedding flowers. However, because they are hearty and in-season most of the year, they are a budget-friendly stem that could add, on average, between $10 and $40 to the final cost that averages between $150 and $300.

Tips for Adding Eucalyptus to Your Bouquet

Eucalyptus can be tricky to work with, as its leaves are often stout and large. Here are a few tips for ensuring it fits right into your wedding bouquet.

Incorporate Different Types of Eucalyptus

While Silver Dollar Eucalyptus may be the most popular variety of this fun greenery, there are so many other types worth working into your bouquet. Consider seeded eucalyptus, gumdrop eucalyptus or even baby blue eucalyptus for a big, tall statement. There are many forms of eucalyptus that provide a more feathery and airy feel should you want a more whimsical vibe.
