A little note on Eucalyptus.

Like flowers, foliage has a season too.

Eucalyptus is a winter foliage, it’s in season from September to March. If I wanted to, I could buy it during the summer, but it really wouldn’t be at its best like buying strawberries in December! 

Pinterest popularity has also driven the price of Eucalyptus up over the past few years, if you are looking for a foliage with a grey / silver tone you may also want to consider Senecio or Olive.
