This plant grows so fast that it usually drinks the entire pot’s worth of water in just a day. However, in the first year of its growth, it is important for you to water it regularly. The Rainbow Eucalyptus is drought tolerant. You can also get weak acidic soil for optimal growth. If the soil is alkaline, the plant won’t do very well.

This Eucalyptus Tree requires a lot of direct sunlight. They have sprawling roots, and that can pose to be a problem for the underground drainage and wiring systems. This is why it is best if you grow them away from things such as other structures or power lines. Moreover, these plants grow quickly and can be quite big. If you want to grow the Rainbow Tree, you must make sure that you get a big container and choose a sheltered environment as these plants do not do very well with cold and drying winds. However, these trees do not grow as tall here as they do in their native environments. They are also found in the frost-free areas in Hawaii and other areas such as California and Texas, where the temperatures are higher. In the native land, the Rainbow Eucalyptus Tree can grow up to 250 ft. However, it can be restricted to much lesser heights if that is desired, and it is usually kept within the range of 60-80 feet tall. Where it grows natively, it can reach double that size or more. In the areas in which it grows inside the continental US, it can grow up to a range of 100 to 125 feet tall. The Rainbow Eucalyptus is a massive plant. It can grow in a temperature as low as 26-28 ℉ but won’t endure these conditions for a long period of time. According to the US Department of Agriculture’s Plant Hardiness Zone Map, it grows in zones where the temperature is 35 ℉ or higher, with a climate ranging from 65-70 ℉ making the ideal environment for the growth. It can be found growing in parts of southern California, as well as Hawaii, Texas, Florida, and parts of Louisiana. The Eucalyptus Deglupta is the only Indigenous Eucalyptus Tree in the Northern Hemisphere. That is because it does not have the capability of resisting frosts and will not stand for long in the face of intense frosts or ones that continue for a long period. The plant also grows in areas in the United States where the climate is frost-free and highly humid. It also thrives best in areas with damp soil. That is because the Rainbow Eucalyptus flourishes in regions dominated by tropical forests since tropical rains are its main source of nutrition. Its native lands of origin include Papua New Guinea, Sulawesi, Mindanao, and New Britain. This use of the Rainbow Eucalyptus is especially prevalent in the Philippines and Indonesia as well as in other parts of East Asia. The Eucalyptus deglupta species is also commonly used for pulpwood plantations that later go into white paper manufacturing. That is how it came to be commonly known as “Rainbow Eucalyptus.” These colors are at their brightest during the plant’s earlier growth phases. That is thanks to its colorful nature and the allure that the multi-colored stripes (predominantly green, red, and purple) decorating its trunk.
