This looks like a Eucalyptus. There was a Eucalyptus grove near where I used to live in San Francisco--that was years ago. I would go there often, especially on foggy mornings, and drink in the wonderful smell. I took several pictures. One though came out so beautifully, a black and white image. I have it framed and it is hanging on my wall here. Whenever I look at it, I remember the grove fondly and the time I spent there. Unfortunately, the grove is no longer there, the trees having been taken down to make room for something far less stimulating.

Yes, it is a eucalypt. I hear they are found in many areas of USA. The grove sounds like it was magical. I love that atmosphere of foggy mornings. The pic would be beautiful. Thank goodness for the power of memory!
