Can anyone tell me what this is please?   It's a donated cutting that I have grown on for a year.   Flowering now.  Not scented.

    Any chance that you can add really clear close up pics to show the flowers.
    Are the leaves trifoliate?
    Thanks.

    No, the leaves are finer and not ribbed but that one does look lovely.   Dark now so I shall try and take closer and better ones tomorrow.

    My initial thought was that it looks a bit like Cytisus battandieri .... but that is beautifully perfumed ... in warm sunshine ...

    I thought maybe coronilla but the leaves aren't right. Or thermopsis, but the stems look too woody.

    @Obelixx, have you finally identified that plant?

    No, and the flowers have faded so I can't get one in focus.   Next year then.
