Eucalyptus on chalk?
I'd like to plant a Eucalyptus with a view to it making a largish
tree, but the bed I have in mind has thin, dry, very chalky soil. Obviously I could try to improve the soil a little before planting, but I've read mixed advice on whether Eucalypts tolerate alkaline soil. Does anyone know whether they do and if so is there a variety that would be particularly recommended in this situation? (Or would I be better off planting something else * I also fancy a Betula utilis, if that's what I'm thinking of, the birch with the white peeling bark that looks quite spectacular in winter.)
