We had a very large one leaning over our pool in Australia. Every year Dad threatened to cut it down, every year Mum said she would leave if he did.

Tree is still there today, beautiful as ever. [1]

Also TONS of Eucalyptus and Jacarandas throughout South Africa which reminded me strongly of home.
