Aromatic and intensely graphic, the 'Silver Dollar' Gum stands out as a masterpiece of modern botanical design. Its stunning juvenile leaves, perfectly round and coated in a waxy silvery blue, mimic the shape of large coins threaded onto flexible stems. This variety diffuses a purifying essential oil fragrance while bringing an irresistible, wispy lightness to your summer or indoor décor.
Characteristics
- Foliage: Waxy, round, opposite, and sessile leaves displaying a highly luminous metallic grey-blue coloration.
- Fragrance: Emits a powerful menthol and eucalyptus aroma as soon as the foliage is lightly brushed.
- Habit: Upright, bushy to tree-like, showcasing a graceful silhouette with slightly arching branches.
- Light: Demands maximum exposure under full sun to preserve the brilliance of its silvery hue.
- Usage: Grown as a splendid container annual for the patio or as a temporary indoor plant in very sunny spaces.
Use
- Style & Placement: Elevate your patio décor, enhance a sunny balcony, or position it near a large south-facing window in the living room.
- Decorative Benefits: Its rigid, structural branches represent the ultimate selection as a cut flower to design minimalist fresh or dried bouquets.
Care & Success
- Watering: Water generously as soon as the soil surface begins to dry out. This eucalyptus drinks heavily during active growth but hates waterlogged roots. Never leave standing water in the saucer.
- Potting Soil: Requires a light, loose, neutral to slightly acidic mix that drains perfectly. A blend of high-quality potting soil mixed with a healthy amount of perlite or coarse sand is ideal.
- Pruning: Regularly pinch back stem tips to encourage dense branching and maintain the round juvenile foliage that creates its unique charm.
- Acclimatization: If moving it to the patio for summer, gradually acclimate it in the shade for a few days to prevent direct sun rays from scorching the leaves. Since it is not winter-hardy in Quebec, bring it indoors before autumn's first frost.
- Toxicity: Keep strictly out of reach of pets and children (the essential oil concentrated within its tissues is toxic if swallowed).

The transformative power of stories, not checklists
Format: Hardcover
As someone familiar with previous writings from Keller and Inazu, I was eager to get this book--it did not disappoint. Both gentlemen are serious scholars, so one might have expected a weighty or dense theological treatise. Instead, they oriented the project around stories--individual stories that faithfully reflect personal versions of the grand Story of redemption, hope, beauty, truth, and justice. Rather than offering long lists of direct recommendations to other people (whose contexts will inevitably be different), these stories target the soul. As such, these stories offer vivid and practical insights to my particular context, but they do so indirectly, authentically, and inspirationally. As Keller has written elsewhere, no one changes his behavior because he's told he needs to change--he must be SHOWN. This book doesn't just tell us what authentic Christianity looks like in our polarized world, it shows us--and it does so exceptionally well. Highly recommended if you want to challenge your soul with diverse renderings of faithful living. Direct application to your life and specific recommendations for action will no doubt emerge, but they'll come from the inspiration of the Holy Spirit working through the power of Story.

So helpful and inspiring, too
Format: Hardcover
I bought both a hard copy and listened to it on Audible. As someone who is seeking to live faithfully in a world of difference in my workplace and community, this was an incredibly helpful book. I also can't help but think just how perfect this book is for our moment of national reckoning around race. NOW more than ever, folks need to read this book! I found myself weeping during Tom Lin's chapter, as I found resonance in my own experience growing up in an immigrant family, and I found myself incredibly inspired through that and so many other chapters as well. Other reviewers have critiqued the lack of specificity...for me, that was helpful, because everyone's context is so different. I was still able to take away what I needed. These are very thoughtful believers who come from very different walks of life, and it was a treat just to see the world from their view each chapter. Thank you, John Inazu and Tim Keller, for the rich contribution of this book to the Christian conversation about our place in the public sphere.

Great Book
Format: Paperback
I am reading this book for our Sabbath school study. Great reading. Submissions are made by real people trying to live right in a wrong, so wrong world. Very applicable to real life.

Valuable and timely
Format: Kindle
The various perspectives on the topic of diversity was refreshing, and the focus was on what is most important about the Christian faith. It is much better to read case studies like these rather than the echo chamber of social media.
