| We moved into a new home (Cave Creek, AZ Area) in July of 2011. I am trying to identify one of the trees as it seems to be losing an awful lot of leaves in the past month. I have attached a photo of the tree taken June 16, 2012. If anyone can identify the exact type of tree, I would greatly appreciate it. If you can also tell me if this is normal leaf loss in the heat of Summer, that would be a bonus!
Thanks in advance for any assistance. |

| Thanks for the reply. No flowers. Just hard, small green berries (about the size of a small pea). The turn yellw/white before they fall to the ground. |

| Hi, I might be wrong but I think this is Eucalyptus. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eucalyptus |

| Thanks for the feedback. But, I think I am still looking for the correct name of the tree, as well as an answer to it whether it is common for this kind of tree to be dropping so many leaves in May/June. |
