A close up of the flowers...

Jevs is your man, he could stick some in his Preston Park Rockery domain.

Absolutely beautiful, reminds me of acacia, I presume that they are in the same family.

I think it's some variety of Ceratonia. If so, grow as a house plant for novelty value as they're not hardy over here and the cold and damp of winter will render it brown bread

They won't survive im afraid, they'll need tropical conditions all year.

BoF....don't think the nursery at Stanmer have any heated greenhouses. Even the old palm house isn't heated. Your only chance with them is either one of the big botanic gardens or someone who has a private heated (and pretty large) greenhouse/orangery.

Best of luck with that Baz.
