Default Jacarandas failing...

I'm writing on behalf of a friend whose parents have planted an avenue
of jacarandas leading from the roadway to their property at Girvan, near
Stroud, NSW. The trees did very well for a while, but now, two years
after planting and in spite of careful watering they are beginning to
yellow and die off. The soil is 'a bit clayey' and the aspect is in full
sun and on a gentle slope. Other saplings (native eucalypts, lilly
pillys etc) are doing well, but the jacarandas are not.

Any ideas please?
