Screw the lillypilly's ... they get a red berry that stains! And that's all of them. Also invasive roots.
I get asked the very same question over and over for around pools.
What sort of tree doesn't drop leaves, flowers or fruit/berries and is great around pools.
I suggest the mediterranean all colour shade sail. Comes in a variety of colours and shade % strengths, has 10 year guarantee and is mature sized on planting ... also perfect for droughts as requires no watering and will never lift your pavers or concrete.
A great addition is large pots, wrought iron or clay with drought tolerant species of interest such as cycads or grass trees (previously known as Black Boys and botanically known as xanthorrhoea).
In the bustling lifestyles we live today, do away with leaves, cleaning filters, the sweeping and heaven forbid hosing if you have water and enjoy your new low maintenance landscape.
