Cladrastis delavayi (syn. sinensis)

A very rarely offered or seen Chinese tree of small to medium size for a sunny position. Attractive pinnate leaves open late, and the tree is smothered in large panicles of pink-tinged white pea flowers in July, but not usually on very young specimens. Bark is smooth and grey, and the autumn colour is an exceptional, glowing, clear golden yellow. Tolerant of a wide range of soils, fully hardy, drought tolerant and unaffected by late frost.
