Hi,

As a first post I thought I would ask if it's possible to reduce the
size of my two eucalyptus trees. Unfortunately they have become very
leggy at approx 35ish foot. I was hoping to lop off the tops down to
approx 20ft. Would this be ok and would it produce a more bushy tree.

Kind Regards Clive

Prune an eucalyptus? Are you mad? Wait for a gentle breeze, and the
limbs will fall off by themselves.

Tut tut, such generalisations, and in public too.

Uh huh. I've live around eucalyptus trees all my life. Damn things may
make fast growing wind breaks, but they are dangerous.

Billy that is crap. SOME Eucalypts can be dangerous. Not all Eucalypts are
dangerous.
