Eucalyptus - Swamp bloodwood

Very happy with my little trees. I've received beautiful healthy plants. Been doing well in pots till I've finally planted them on our farm driveway . Hardy and pretty fast growing once established. Would be great for all the native birds we have around. Tree guards, mulch and watering regularly will set them to a great start.
