thank you

    Its so gorgeous, the pinky purple is so vibrant and its a buzz with bees. When the flowers go it has long thin seed pods. Perfectly compact, with great shape and over arches the border beautifully

    I've had a quick google but I don't think its Tamarisk or Hiptage Lucida from the images i'm afraid.

     

    Here's another pic should that help!

    The leaves are wrong for Judas tree but I think it's a pea. Maybe Indigofera

    I think so. I don't think swainsona makes a substantial bush like that
