Your yard looks fantastic!
Your brugs are killer. They are more of a challenge here...they get huge in a single season, most years over 10 feet, but they are water hogs and in the intense heat of summer here if they don't get the water they feel entitled to they drop their lower leaves and don;t look as full as yours. Unless I keep a sprinkler on mine with a timer for twice a day watering, I can;t get that lush look.
