natural dyeing - eucalyptus

This is the results of my first attempt with eucalyptus leaves. At top organic merino and below some mohair locks. i was suprised as I expecting the russet tones that eucalypus typically produces. These are beautiful, silvery tawny greens. I can only speculate which variable produced these tones..perhaps the species, time of year, ph of my water etc.
