Eucalytptus Summer Red
Dear Mitchell,
It doesnt have to be deciduous to drop alot of rubbish onto the ground. Most eucalyptus leaves last about 2 years, and then fall off. They dont fall off all together (deciduous), noooo that would be way too convenient. Some berries knock off the trees easily, and leaves fall onto the driveway. Other trees are not quite such a problem. Many trees lining the roads in Paddington have been removed because they drop too many nuts and berries onto the driveways blocking drains and flooding garages. :0) Jade.

When the flowers emerge from the casing the top of it falls off. which is not a problem. I have bark chips under the tree to help keep the soil damp and healthy so any thing falling on to it does not look out of place. Regards, Mitchell "Wanda Too" wrote in message ... Thanks Mitchell. Does it drop much rubbish in the way of leaves or nuts? "Mitchell McCreath" wrote in message ... Hello Wanda it is a beautiful bush / tree. and its complement "summer beauty" (Pinkish flowers) look for "Summer Red" on the internet All you should do after flowering is prune back the tree AFTER flowering to promot bushy growth. also you can prune it to stop it from getting to big. Has been known to grow to 8 metres Cheers, Mitchell "Wanda Too" wrote in message ... This sounds like a good tree for my backyard. Does it drop much in the way of leaves or nuts? |
