Can anyone identify these plants. All growing in what was a much-loved garden about 20 years ago but since totally neglected.
This is on the Central Coast, NSW.
The first one is a small tree. Rather pretty. I cant tell if it was planted or is self sown, native or exotic. The newly emerging leaves are rather distinctive - tightly wrapped like an elongated flower bud.

The second one is this large shrub. I think it was planted many years ago as an ornamental, though it doesn't seem to have any redeeming features. From a distance it looks like a large azalea or abelia, but up close you see it is not. White flowers but rather sparse.

And the third one is these two slender trees (growing above the Brunsfelia). I think I often see them growing as hedges - where people need a quick hedge or screening solution. There was a small white flower a few days ago but didn't get a photo of it.
