Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus is a hardwood that earns high marks for strength, durability and offers excellent weathering characteristics. It is pinkish-brown in color and turns to a reddish-brown with age and exposure to light. It's resistance to decay is relative to teak wood. When finished with a high quality penetrating oil, mixed with the stain of your choice, Eucalyptus takes on a teak-like appearance. Many customers prefer to let the furniture fade naturally. Our recommendation is to use one of the commercially available deck finishes or oils. If you prefer to maintain the "new" look, then occasionally clean and reseal. The furniture can be painted as well.

The Eucalyptus wood used in the GardenWood Furniture line, comes from well managed forests, that have been independently certified in accordance with the rules of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).
