Description

Eucalyptus Torquata (Coral Gum)

The Coral Gum operculum protect the fruit until they are ready to flower.  When the vibrant pink flowers emerge, they throw the operculum to the ground – kids say they represent pixie hats discarded after a wild party.

Break off the spike to reveal a natural hole ready for threading. If brittle, you can rehydrate them in a glass of water.

They will change colour to brown over time as they dry out.  When still pink and orange, they are easily rehydrated by soaking in water for a few hours.  They come out plump and refreshed.

These sweet little coral pink caps have a natural hole for threading.

Break off the stalk to reveal a pretty frilly cap ready for threading.  Perfect size for earrings.

They pair well with nyintu seeds or ininti.
