Re: Eucalyptus Trees: Good or Bad?
I would feel that if this tree was in a wet spot, it probably never felt
the need to develop a far-reaching root system. Last year Kings Park
lost two quite large Karri (E. diversicolor) trees which had been
sitting on a leaking sump. It turned out that their roots were quite
pathetic.
