I love the way that you have to duck under the trunk of this as you walk down the passageway.
Taken today at Oxfords botanic gardens.

It's familiar to me!

It probably doesn't grow everywhere, like here in California, though. This is the most widely grown Philodendron in the landscape here in CA. It can grow to 20ft.

I am familiar with this particular one though as I'm up there so regularly!

Is it growing in a greenhouse or in front of a building?
This plant is very widely grown in front of buildings or as an informal hedge.

It's undercover Delonix.

You should try one outside where you live. It's a very tough, hardy plant.

It would cost a fortune for one that was anywhere near large enough to be even remotely hardy enough.............

I guess they're not cheap; like here in CA.
Just cut a large cutting off the one above. lol!
It's very easy to start from cuttings.

I might look a bit dodgy wandering around with a saw Delonix!

Also, they may not let you back in Oxford Botanical Gardens. lol! :>)

Now that would be bad!

Yes, I would think so.
