Default Eucalyptus tree

om...
I have a eucalyptus tree which I bought at the beginning of the
summer. I say tree, but it is actually a single stalk, and is now over
now 7 ft tall! It has tiny offshoots but only above 4ft level.
How/where/when should I prune this to make it grow like a tree? (if in
fact possible)


hi i would leave it until it got more established,just remove any suckers at
the base & any untidy branches.When it gets to big you could cut it to the
ground ,it will send up new young growth.Or prune it to fit the space
available,its evergreen so prune at any time
good luck
