Comments on the clue
1.Where's the anagam indicator?
2.Surely a eucalyptus IS a gum tree (2 words) so the yields is unnecessary? This also looks like an indirect anagram with no anagrind?
3.Indirect anagram of an obscure word seems very unfair, and there is no clear anagram indicator
4.The surface reading is jarring.
