I remembered this plant was I first looked in childhood about 1985 in Eucalyptus loan of Punjab University's botanical garden where about >20 types of Eucalyptus trees & shrubs were existing then. This bottle brush /Eucalyptus family tree was not ever observed attractive like picture posted above.

My sister also buy very expensive plant (Rs.8k) last summer of red leafs that predicted to flower like iceberg in spring, when I closely observed I found it was grafted on Aloocha (Greengages) stick.In fact it was grafted red leaf Allocha tree, off course will bloom like iceberg in spring. I remembered Greengages, Peaches, Pears trees in my old home at Lahore were real iceberg or pink balls in flowering season.

Same goes for fruit varieties being sold there, exotic but less fruiting and tasteless in some cases while spending a hefty amount too !
