Does anyone have any eucalyptus which flowers in the UK, and of so
does it set viable seed, and can it self-seed here?

Hello,
My E. Gunnii has lots of flowers and seeds but nothing has sprouted out of
the ground.
There is / was a specialist Eucalypt nursery near Corwen in North Wales but
the name escapes me...

When you say nothing has sprouted from the ground, I wonder if you are
expecting seedlings?
If so then you must remember that what you see are seed capsules and it will
take a fire/smoke to get the capsule to release the seed, and only then, if
it is viable will you get any chance of seedlings.

remain on the tree two years before ripening and Eucalyptus seed is
difficult to clean from the chaff. I have certainly grown Eucalypts from
local seed. so if you have some give it a go (won't grow unless you sow
it!!!) :~)

I have a eucaluptus grown from seed. It is a slender tree which produces
flowers. It also produced a seeding which I lost when I potted it up.

I have a Eucalyptus gunni. I know with the seeds you have moisten and
leave them in vercumulite in a plastic bag in the fridge (bottom of) for
4-6 weeks - stratification they call it. So that the seeds think there
has been a winter. Take them out and plant in pots and the warmer
temperature should start them off.
