Hello, I must confess to not ever having seen a gum tree before but I have heard the expression, 'Up a gum tree' which I believe is a euphemism for somebody in deep trouble... A gum tree is more commonly known particularly in Australasia as a Eucalyptus tree. I use oil of Eucalyptus to clear my head when I have a cold. They are most interesting trees. Good picture, Best Wishes, ABCW team.
These trees don't grow at my place but they are great.
