‘It is odd that an antipodean tree, the eucalyptus, unknown before the voyages of Captain Cook, should look so beautiful and appropriate along many a Peloponnesian road. I think they unconsciously suggest the dream vegetation in the imaginary classical landscapes of Poussin and Claude.’ Mani – Travels in the Southern Peloponnese, Patrick Leigh Fremor, 1956
