As I mentioned in the previous post, we have had our landscape plans approved. Because we are spending enough money already, we're looking at buying a lot of these plants from nurseries. Buy them young, grow them up a bit while we wait for things to happen, and fingers-crossed-we-dont-kill-them-over-winter, they'll be ready to go when we are ready to move in.
For anyone who cares, here's what we've got in the backyard :)
L-R:
Lomandra Tanika - already purchased!

Forest Flame Lilly Pilly (3)
Tristaniopsis Laurina Luscious (2)
To be honest, rather than the Tristaniopsis below, I would much rather a couple of (large) Grevillea. We'll see how we go. These grow to 7-12m tall.
In the front yard it feels like there will be more plants than grass!
These are our plants:

Lomandra Tanika (x 25)

Forest Flame Lilly Pilly (x 5)
Liriope Muscari Joy Mist (x 33)

Murraya (31 - 36)

NZ Flax (5)
LOWER L-R:
Weeping Lilly Pilly (2) (these will be the two trees on the corner. 8-10m each. We'll prune them at the bottom so they look more like the trees you drew as a child)

NZ Rock Lily (12)
Plus the streetscape trees and shrubs AND whatever we choose to put along the side of the secondary facade. The head is spinning! Plus side: it'll look good and we might get some spare change out of the rebate...to put towards the fence we need to get.
Picking the right plan for your landscaping project is really important. It could make or break your project. I'm sure that you are confident with your plan, great job!
