Hi

I wonder if anyone has any tips from personal experience. Last year I put in two Eucalyptus trees around 8ft tall. One has died (although the dais of the trunk is shooting) and the other has looked sick since easter when we had snow (up til consequently it was in great shape). Wondering if anyone have any tips before I buy ones to replace them.
Get rid of the Koala's!


It's unlikely they will fully die but recover from the base.This tree requests very good soil drainage to be cheerful in the english winter.They need to be planted contained by spring,so that they have a long time to acclimatise before winter comes.
A eucalyptus is unsuitable for gardens.They are too big,they poison the soil underneath so nil grows.They are constantly dropping old leaves everywhere making a right mess.Lastly when under stress they drop huge branches,which can be dodgy.This is the reason why you do not see these beautiful trees facing the roadsides.Average water removal from the soil,when growing,250 gallons per day gosh they are usually comparatively hardy did you prune them?and make sure they are watered give them some nurture?and cut back the dead branches?http://www.shopzilla.co.uk/8B--Skin_Care...
Answers:    Some Eucalyptus species are hardier than others, Eucalyptus gunnii being one of the toughest, although this - somewhat once in a while - can be attacked by hard freezes, especially when younger.

See if you can find out which Eucalyptus you have, and gag your question.

Eucalyptus globulus is another commonly grown one, which I used to raise as a child, though this is smaller number hardy here. You can help them by giving them a sheltered spot, though beware of having them too close to your house, as they can grow to 100', depending on the species. Garden fleece will abet protect tender plants in winter, though this doesn't help you right presently.

I'd feed your plants, and hope that they recover, if this is possible. If you do replace them, turn out for a really hardy type, as this will give you the strongest chances of nouns.

The following seed/plant company has some information on a range of species that are hardy/semi hardy, which will contribute you some details of the range that you might like to try. http://www.jungleseeds.co.uk/SeedOrders/...

Hope this help. Good luck! Rob
