Tree Question

Hello,

My wife and I were in California a while ago and loved the eucalyptus trees that lined the neighborhoods. Unfortunately, living in Kansas, we don't have the weather of California. Does anyone have any suggestions on a tree that would be suitable that may resemble a eucalyptus and will grow in Kansas weather?

Thanks!

Which attribute did you like the most?
- large size
- attractive bark
- evergreen
- Eucalyptus scent
- rapid growth rate

In Kansas (eastern), you should be able to grow a tree with at least one attribute...just not a Eucalyptus or one that smell like it.

Good questions smiv.

Since op mentioned looks, how about a large leaf, non-weeping willow, or maybe chestnut?
