Eucalyptus is an evergreen tree that is well known by its smooth bark and highly aromatic and waxy leaves. Eucalyptus is originally native to Tasmania and Australia but can now be found all over the world.
Eucalyptus, also known as Blue Gum, is most commonly used as an essential oil. However, the camphoraceous scent of the whole leaf itself, makes it a great herb for facial steams and infusing into oils for herbal chest rubs.
