"Street trees usually grow in appalling soils, have little space for their
roots, are rarely watered and often get aggressively trimmed by road
authorities or utility companies.
If they do get established, many street trees suffer damage from vehicles, have
to live in wind tunnels or are forced to grow in the permanent shade of large
buildings.
But despite everything we throw at them, many street trees don’t just survive,
they thrive. So let’s meet one of these heroic species: the yellow gum,
(
Eucalyptus leucoxylon)."
