    I don't think this is in the correct forum. The first one looks like Myoporum laetum. The second one could be Ligustrum japonicum? Hard to really see much from the pictures there.

    If you could get up some better shots of the leaves and stems it would be easier to tell. Close views of any buds there might be could also help quite a bit, as well as any reproductive parts that might be present - even remnants of fruits on the ground might hold clues that are otherwise not available.

    Re: Need Help Identifying these two trees

    1st one is likely Myoporum laetum suffering from Thrips.
    2nd one looks like a Syzygium species or Eugeinia. I have always mixed these up so I am not sure which one it is.

    Syzygium jambos, I think.
