We're currently on holiday in Granada, and saw the plant below on a visit to a garden today. Can anyone ID it please?

If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

I had a look at pics of your suggestions and think the foliage definitely looks more like the cocks comb from what I can see.......thanks for that! :icon_cheers:
