They were SAID to grow faster than Redwoods and that is why they were
planted to replace the coastal redwoods that were cut down for
construction material. However. as you say, they are HUGE fire hazards
filling the entire area with dry sluffed off bark, their lumber is
unusuable since it shrinks and cracks with drying and that cannot be
remedied making the wood weak and useless.


Don't tell the Austalians this, they have been using them for centuries
until the modern fad for ****ty Pinus radiata in housing and everywhere
else.

Do you know which species they grow?


I don't know anything about eucalyptus species, but the description of
California eucalyptus agrees with what I've heard.

.... seems they're mostly blue gum, Eucalyptus globulus:

And they really do not grow
faster than redwoods after a certain age.
