    1. Acacia of some description. I'm horrible at telling them apart, myself.
    2. I have no clue, and would need to know if it had spines or not, and maybe see a flower, to ID it. Other people are more cactus-friendly.
    3. Looks like Tecoma stans. Did the flowers look like this close up?

    I took the original pic and blew it up for a closer view -- seems to be large single flowers, not clusters like rhodos:

    Hmmm. Very interesting. In this case, I'm not sure what that tree is!
