Hi, we are based in Melbourne Victoria, so not sure what we can do from here other than suggest that these trees are most likely Agonis flexuosa also known as Peppermint Willow. If they are big trees and you would like to check their health, best to get an arborist to check the tree and do any necessary works. Your local council should also be advised from a safety perspective. They may be able to provide horticultural assistance.
