@EJ NJ good choice with the neglecta.  Probably my favorite Euc and very manageable in size for the average person.  What's the other Euc?

You guys on the east always seem to choose that one. You should really get pauciflora either subspecies is fine. It’s the most cold hardy of them all.

Pauciflora, being an alpine species, seems to resent the hot/humid Eastern summer weather. Neglecta is definitely the best choice for out East. Cinerea is not very cold hardy, even here in 8a/b.

Zone 8b, Csb (Warm-summer Mediterranean climate). 1,940 annual sunshine hours 
Annual lows-> 19/20: -5.0C, 20/21: -5.5C, 21/22: -8.3C, 22/23: -9.4C, 23/24: 1.1C (so far!)

Good points @ShadyDan  I didn’t realize pauciflora had issues with the humidity.
