Help identify this tree
« on: December 31, 2014, 02:29:58 am »
Hi all
I have some trees in an adjacent street which is lined with this species of tree. I think my bees are gorging themselves on the plant as there are hundreds of bees just on the row of trees that are planted in the street. I was hoping someone out there can identify what species it is.
the tree has a whitish trunk and grows to about 3 to 4 metres
