Eucalypts are called “sclerophyllous” which means ‘hard leaves’. This means they are hardy in low water conditions. They hang vertically so they are not exposed to the midday sun which reduces water loss through transpiration. For this reason many have stomata and chloroplasts on both sides of the leaf.
