Hello everyone
My nephew has this plant growing in his garden and I can't think what it
is called! Maybe a type of indigofera (dielsiana?)
Any ideas?

At a guess, Lespedeza thunbergii.

Thanks Sacha / Jeff, sorry for my delay in replying but I've been away salmon fishing.
Yes, thats definantly what it is. Its growing in a garden in Weston-S-Mare and was cut to the ground when they moved in. its made a superb shrub in just one year and is flowering well.
