The genus Eucalyptus, the gum trees that dominate the Australian forest canopy and have been planted across the world for fast-growth timber and the menthol-camphor oil. The color refers to mature eucalyptus leaves with their pale waxy bloom: a soft, slightly muted blue-green with the matte finish of cuticle that reflects more light than typical foliage. Cooler than sage, warmer than mint.
