Does anybody know this tree?
It is flowering now nearby, in northern Crete.

Daisy great pics; makes identification easy if you know the plant in the first place!  I only know G robusta from Wye when it was grown as a pot plant.

We saw a lot of them in Cyprus.
Since then they have been planted here in Corinth but they are not doing too well
