Eucalyptus Leaf Cut & Sifted

Eucalyptus leaves come from an evergreen species of tree in the myrtle family native to Australia, commonly known as blue gum or Australian fever tree. Beloved by koalas and widely used in floral crafts, these glossy leaves also offer significant therapeutic properties. At Heartwell Farmacy, our dried eucalyptus leaves are perfect for creating infused oils, salves, chest rubs, facial steam baths, and herbal pillows.
