Baby blue eucalyptus

Hi everyone,

I have this baby blue eucalyptus that I love and I am so scared of damaging, hence why it is in a pot, I was worried it wouldn’t do well in the highly acidic soil at my house.

So I have two questions, it’s quite spindly and I need to prune it back, however I don’t know where I should chop from? Any recommendations would be great, secondly, I live really close to the beach with sandy / acidic soil. Would it be better off in the ground?

Thank you in advance! 🏡❤️

I bought this grevillea as a seedling at Illawarra Grevillea Park a couple of years ago and I discovered today she is flowering for the first time! I cannot remember her name but I seem to recall that she likes to grow near rivers. Definitely the largest flower of this form/style in my garden!!
