Gum Tree
From LoveToKnow Garden
Gum Tree (Eucalyptus) - Large and handsome Australian trees and shrubs, of which, in the south of England and Ireland, a few of the species live in the open air. Only in the more favoured districts have these trees any chance, and they never present the graceful and stately port which they show in countries that really suit them, such as parts of Italy and California. I think these trees are unfitted for our climate, and even in Algeria, where many species were planted by the French Government, the result, as I saw it some years ago, was anything but good. Among the hardier kinds are E. globulus, Gunnii, citriodora, amygdalina, cordata.
