The Eucalypts dilier considerably as to the cliuiatic conditions underwhich the} thrive, ])ut all the larger arboreal forms agree in requiringa warm climate. Not only do they prefer a climate that is equable,but other conditions must exist in order that the} may be grownsuccessfully. Prof. Charles Naudin, in his memoir on the genus,gives quite concisel} the conditions required for the successful growthof Eucalypts. He says: The first condition of success in the culture of Eucalyptus is a climate appropriateto their nature; that ia to say, for a great majority of the species, warm summers, amoderate amount of rain, a certain atmospheric dryness, plenty of sunlight, and verytemperate winters. While all thrive best in regions with warm summers, man} speciesdo not endure the summer heat of certain sections of southwesternNorth America. Reg
