Ditto for mine, too. They looked great up until about the end of
February.
The 'To Do' list for the girls tomorrow includes "Move the eucalyptus
to Sick Bay".
However, when I scratched the bark at the soil line, it is green. I
don't think it's dead, but I suspect it's playing a darn good game of
'Possum.
Don't pitch them yet, I advise.
