I have been playing with the idea of buying a small eucalyptus so that I could plant it and have access to leaves and branches for the little ones(not that they are spoiled or anything).
My question is, are there specific species of eucalyptus that are glider friendly and are there ones to avoid? I know eucalyptus is poisonous (to other pets) so I'll have to keep it away from my dog and cats, but I'd really like to try having some on hand for the gliders.
Does anyone know which species is best for gliders?
Here was a post from JazzNZoeysmom...Euc.com I think is the site people have ordered from.

I ordered a 3ft. branch, 2-3in. thick & a bag of leaves. I guess instead of stripping the leaves and bagging them, Matt decided to just leave them on,...so while I think the thickest branch is about 1.5-2in. thick, he gave me 4 or 5 nice long branches full of leaves....so while I was wanting something thicker, I think I came out with the better deal...he really made sure I had plenty!
This is just one!
