Hey everyone. These beautiful eucalyptus trees are extremely popular in San Diego and southern california, and i've seen them all over. (They are my personal favorite)But, I have not been able to figure out what species they are (I'd like to know their actual name). As far as I can tell, all 5 of these images are possibly the same type of eucalyptus. Thanks for your help in advance! Here are the pictures:
This man has a eucalyptus identification software on his laptop, may be able to determine your tree from closeups of fruits, flowers and foliage if he doesn't recognize it from general appearance and location. He worked on identification of gums for A. Jacobson during the preparation of TREES OF SEATTLE - SECOND EDITION. http://www.angelfire.com/bc/eucalyptus/desertnorthwest/
