IMG_3833Eucalyptus trees fascinate me. They are so different to the majestic oaks, elms and other northern hemisphere trees that I grew up with. These “gum” trees must have seemed so alien to the early European Settlers, trees that kept their leaves but shed their bark. Trees with such a distinct scent and unique flowers and seed pods.IMG_1044IMG_3855IMG_3830IMG_E2836IMG_0617IMG_3881
