Not actually sure what this is. First impression was gorse or a broom. Otherwise it gives me saltbush vibes e.g. Salsola. Yarralumla Equestrian Park.

I reckon Cupressaceae, maybe Cupressus arizonica?

That seems a reasonable assessment. Might be some planted with the Pinus along the road near Government House.
