Latest comment: 4 months ago by Benleedscarson in topic eucalyptus and mountain ask are not related

“Anecdotal reports do exist of other Douglas fir and mountain ash trees reaching 400 to 500 feet (122 to 152 m), such as the 435 feet (133 m) "Ferguson Tree," a Eucalyptus regnans of the Watt's river, Australia in 1872, or the 415 feet (126 m) Lynn Valley Tree, a Douglas fir felled in 1902.”


Eucalyptus is not a type of Douglas fir or ash. Also Mountain Ash trees don’t typically reach heights of more 50 feet (?) so this seems like an error.  Preceding unsigned comment added by Benleedscarson (talkcontribs) 16:49, 15 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

“Anecdotal reports do exist of other Douglas fir and mountain ash trees reaching 400 to 500 feet (122 to 152 m), such as the 435 feet (133 m) ‘Ferguson Tree,’ a Eucalyptus regnans of the Watt's river, Australia in 1872, or the 415 feet (126 m) Lynn Valley Tree, a Douglas fir felled in 1902.”

This implies eucalyptus is a type of Douglas fir or mountain ash. Also mountain ash trees are probably not relevant to this article as they do not often reach heights over 50’. Benleedscarson (talk) 16:51, 15 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
