Hi folks

Could someone identify this tree from this album please?

I think that it's eucalyptus niphophila. Could anyone confirm?

thanks
Matt

looks like a globulus, maybe a globulus compacta.

Ok, thanks... although ours does not seem to have quite such elongated leaves. I didn't realise there were some different species!

"best need to see fruit to be sure tho"

I don't think we've ever seen any fruit. We are in the UK perhaps that's too cold for it?

I have seen some small white hairy flower-like things. Kinda like this:



but probably smaller. It does not have that on it right now. I found that piccy on the internet under a general eucalyptus image search.
