I bought a 18 inch silver dollar eucalyptus tree and it's leaves are turning yellow... It's in a pot. Is that a result of overwatering as well?

could well be ... they should be bone dry , then drench -- flood w/ water until it runs out the drains ... don't let it sit in water https://homeguides.sfgate.com/eucalyptus-potting-care-46497.html

From what I'm hearing it sounds as though it's overwatering. But I couldn't find how information regarding when to water. I'll just have to wing it.
