Time to post something :-) Last March I planted a small eucalyptus tree, I think it's Gunnii, in the front garden. I wanted something non-coniferous, evergreen and fast growing to add some height to the border. Well, it sure is a speedy plant! This photo shows it standing at 56cm/22" when planted.
I measured it during December to see how it was getting on and found it had reached a height of 230cm/90" that's four times its original height in nine months! I've read that they don't have a true dormant period so it'll be interesting to see how it grows through the winter. Look out for an update in the spring, I bet you can't wait ;-)
