Can Someone Advise Me Regarding A Eucalyptus Tree On My Lot? I Don’t Know How Safe They Are.

Question

Do you have any arborists on staff that could advise me? Thank you!

Answer 1

We don't have any arborists but if you are referring to the heavy litter they drop, this article mentions it. They drop bark sheddings, leaves, as well as branches. So it should be where there is a lot of clearance. They also are a fire and wind hazard.
