2 specimens of unknown shrubs close to 2 unknown eucalyptus, both shrubs and eucalypts are not a local species I think ; I'm afraid the 2 shrub specimens as well as the eucalypts have been planted by someone well meaning but without a clue; there was planting of inappropriate species in the area before, see https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4386656 and actions such as pruning trees,,,,

I might be able to id these with better photos... need close ups of leaves, front and back, to see structures - hairs, glands, buds, whatever...

Kunzea or allied I think - but with these photos it will be an inconclusive

I uploaded a better photo and collected a sample - I think it is a Burgan, Kunzea ericoides; I gave a specimen to Isobel for a closer look... I also have a specimen for you Barb :-)
