Golden Rain Tree


The Golden Rain Tree is an example of a long-range passalong plant.  I had to check to be sure not to confuse it with the Golden Chain tree, which has rounded leaves.

My friend JoAnn gave this to me a good many years ago.

 In double-checking information about it, I discovered  that supposedly this tree was first grown in America by Thomas Jefferson--I am a bit unsure since I  have not seen it at Monticello myself.

Some sources say it is invasive, but it has produced very few offspring in my yard.





I have let it get too tall, but at least I can see it from my porch.
