The eucalyptus is a self-growing tree. Eucalyptus citriodora – or lemon eucalyptus – is an evergreen tree with citrus-like fragrant leaves that reaches heights of up to 50m. Eucalyptus citriodora is a particularly mild and soft lyrical species and thus differs in its fragrance profile from a classic eucalyptus oil. Unlike most other eucalyptus species, the essential oil of lemon eucalyptus does not contain any eucalyptol, it mainly contains citronellal (80-95%), citronellol, geraniol and pinene. In Australia, 70% of the trees today are eucalyptus species. No other continent has such a large population of a single genus. The area of the natural eucalyptus population in Australia is more than 110,000 km2 (as of 2009)Today, eucalyptus species grow in more than 90 countries.
