One of the finest trees for late season color. Golden Rain Tree is a fast growing shade tree that eventually reaches 30-40 feet in height. Each summer it produces clusters of yellow flowers and then follows up with pink or red lantern-shaped seed pods. They perform well in almost any soil condition and prefer full sun. This deciduous tree is excellent as a lawn tree, or for shading a patio. It also preforms well in urban landscapes, standing up to the additional heat and air pollution.
