evanshaley+FollowEucalyptus Trees: Secret Fire Hazards?Did you know those chill eucalyptus trees are actually wildfire time bombs in places like California? They’re not just invasive—they’re packed with flammable oil that can explode in fires. Early settlers brought them over, but now they’re crowding out native plants and even toppling over onto homes because of their shallow roots. Locals are fighting back by rewilding their yards with native plants (bonus: it’s cheaper and better for pollinators!). Wild, right? #Eucalyptus #WildfireRisk #InvasiveSpecies #Home00Share
