G'day Mike

Have you thought about a Bauhinia? I wanted something similar to your
description and bought one at a local nursery. They aren't frost
tolerant though, so it depends how close to the coast you live. There
are various shades of pink (mine's the darkest) to almost a white/cream.

One or two flowers are starting to open on mine at the moment but they
are quite spectacular.
