I'd say those southerners (Victorians and Tasmanians) would know. What about that flowering gum ficofolia, can that take a frost or freeze?

What ever you do don't rec those Regnans monsters.

Agree with the above, especially Snow Gum! There are 2 types known by the same common name!
Eucalyptus pauciflora - Can grow to 60' but usually a bit less in sub-alpine to alpine areas.

Eucalyptus niphophila - Less than 15' in alpine areas.
