That would appear to be borne out with my experience. Interesting thing was
that the root ball was exposed and spent a long time frozen, and yet it
managed to survive! Blooming hardy I'd say!

Now I have a
beautiful shrub which is far easier to maintain. Perhaps I was just
lucky,
but the proof is growing healthily in my back garden,

Hi, just a question, aren't Eucalyps evolved to survive being burnt to the
ground every so often in forest fires? I would think that being evolved
to
take that sort of punishment, they wouldn't have a problem being topped?
