Can I ask what is the last one in the first set with the variegated leaves please, cause i think I have a mature one in my backyard.

Thanks
It is a Metrosideros tormentosa,( Pohutukawa,New Zealand Christmas tree) very salt tolerant has red bottle brush type flowers. This one is a hybrid tree from the green leaved one.
Cheers Pup
Thank you Pup. I doubt thats what I have as I'm in Canberra. I've done some research and I'm pretty sure mines a variegated Pittosporum.
