Well picked. Leaves are not lobed but this does not always occur. Not a common occurrence in SE Australia.

I think it may be Judas Tree, Cercis siliquastrum, pods and leaf look like a good match and Cercis is a more common garden planting in Canberra than Bauhinia

Comparison with photos, including ALA, shows this as Cercis siliquastrum. Not in ACT Plant Census but collected from Black Mountain.
