eucalyptus shoots Explanation: Estacas means 'stakes' so obviously they cannot be planted. By context, they seem to want to say seedlings or shoots, as eucalyptus can be cut down and then grown new shoots. |

eucalyptus cuttings Explanation: https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estaquia Estacas de raiz É utilizada parte da raiz da planta para produzir uma nova. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_(plant) A plant cutting is a piece of a plant that is used in horticulture for vegetative (asexual) propagation. A piece of the stem or root of the source plant is placed in a suitable medium such as moist soil. If the conditions are suitable, the plant piece will begin to grow as a new plant independent of the parent, a process known as striking. A stem cutting produces new roots, and a root cutting produces new stems. |
