I like the article This plant in the summer assumes a white colouring; it is small in size and can reach 10 m high. It keeps its leaves in the winter. The development of these plants is columnar, they grow aiming high with a scarce lateral development. The Eucryphia lucida develops like a tree. Fertilize Eucryphia lucida
Trees tend to find a great part of nutrients in the soil, because their roots spread more than ten metres; in any case it is advisable to feed the soil with amendants, to guarantee a good quantity of mineral salts; every 2-3 years, in the spring or autumn, we suggest adding to the soil at the feet of the trunk, about a bucket of mature organic fertilizer. Light Eucryphia lucida
During this time of year the the Eucryphia lucida can be grown outdoors. It prefers partially shady locations, where it can be reached by the solar rays only during the coolest hours of the day.During the winter young plants could need a light protection from the wind or cold; when putting the very young specimens, with a thin stem, in shelter, we should provide them with a high stake to keep them erect. Water Eucryphia lucida
The Eucryphia lucida Needs regular watering, but we suggest letting the soil dry between one watering and the other; let's take action every 2-3 weeks , remembering to water the substratum well with 2-3 buckets of water . The young specimens, recently sheltered, need more cures compared to the adult specimens: as the years go by the development of a good radical apparatus allows the plant to be satisfied with the rain, without needing other waterings. Pests Eucryphia lucida
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden. Mold Eucryphia lucida
These trees prefer soils for acidophilic plants, which slightly withhold humidity.

Plant Eucryphia lucida
The Eucryphia lucida needs to be cultivated in an acid substratum, with a PH level lower than 5. The indications given in this article are related to a medium size plant.
