Has anyone tried growing this in UK? I can't imagine it surviving outside

a
large conservatory but I'm curious to know if anyone has tried and

therefore
whether it will grow and flower in a smaller form as e.g. the Jacaranda
will. I think its proper name is Delonix regia.

Hi Sacha, I tried growing it from seed but it was unhappy in the unheated
greenhouse (Tibouchina was fine) so I gave up!
