Description: 
The Australian native Blue Mallee tree (Eucalyptus polybractea) is believed to have its earliest recorded history in Australian Aboriginal remedies where the crushed leaves were used in antiseptic mixtures and the name is said to have come from the observation that the leaves have a blue appearance when viewed from a distance.

Eucalyptus polybractea is much smaller than most other eucalyptus relatives, growing to a height of only 5 to 10 metres. Blue Mallee trees are most prominent in the low rainfall areas of New South Wales and Victoria, Australia and are commercially grown for the production of this beautiful essential oil which is steam distilled from the leaves.  

Blue Mallee Oil has the highest natural cineole levels of all eucalyptus oils which provide a uniquely complex aroma, noticeably softer and sweeter in comparison to Eucalyptus Blue Gum. The cineole levels also give Blue Mallee oil strong analgesic, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic, anti-viral and anti-tussive properties. When used in aromatherapy applications, Blue Mallee Oil has uplifting, refreshing and cleansing qualities.
